March is Women's History Month in the U.S., and while there are many great women in history, each one of us has one personal heroine who inspires us. Mine is my mom.
Here's an excerpt of my blog: In the spirit of National Women’s History Month, I’ll take a few minutes to mention a heroine you may not know of.
This woman is not nationally known. She hasn’t won awards, discovered land or changed the world. She has, however, changed my world. And that makes her pretty heroic in my book.

My beautiful Mum, those who follow me will know she passed away last year from ca pancreas. Here she is with me and my Sammy (who has featured in my 365 over 35 years later!)
This is my Mum when she was very young, hanging out!
:o)
I'm going to go with my little girl too. She has been through so much, died three times had a few surgeries and yet still manages a smile and a giggle every day
It may seem weird to post a photo of a fictional character, but she really is my hero. I can't wait until my daughter is old enough to watch Buffy with me, and I hope my baby girl looks up to her as much as I do. After all, she saved the world. A lot.
