No matter how far this journey has taken me, one thing I’ll never stop being grateful for is having parents who believed in me before any of this even existed. 🤍
My dad was such an amazing man who always led with love, faith, and kindness. He sacrificed so much for our family and supported every dream, every risk, and every season of my career without hesitation. Through all the highs, unknowns, and behind the scenes moments… my parents were always there for us.
One of the greatest blessings for Don and I was being able to move my parents in with us and truly do life together every single day. The conversations, the laughs, and the little everyday moments are the memories we now hold closest to our hearts.
And to everyone who has supported me throughout my social media journey over the years… thank you from the bottom of my heart. I truly wouldn’t have been able to accomplish any of this without my parents and all of you who have supported, encouraged, and grown with me through every season. 🤍
I’ll forever be grateful for the love, and support that helped shape my life. 🙏🏽
You make this world a wonderful place @therealmommyv 💐 Thank you for showing me what it means to be a mother through your strength, patience, and unconditional love. So much of the mom I am today is because of you. Love you ❤️
Mother’s Day looked a little different this year.
We miss Papa V deeply every single day, and we’re learning how to carry his love with us through all of life’s moments.
To anyone navigating grief today, be gentle with yourself. Joy and sorrow can exist in the same place. Our faith & Love is what carries us forward 🤍🙏🏽
My dad taught me many things in life, but one of the greatest gifts he ever gave me was teaching me how to trust God. Not just when life is good, but when life hurts too.
Watching his faith through every season strengthened mine in ways I can’t even explain. He showed me what it looks like to keep believing, keep praying, and keep trusting God even in the hardest moments. And now, that faith is something deeply rooted in my heart forever. 🤍
Romans 8:28
“All things work together for good for those who love Him.” 🤍
Celebrating my other half @donbenjamin ❤️
Not just for the day you were born, but for who you are in the everyday moments, the love you give so effortlessly, the way you take care of us, and how you make life feel lighter just by being you. I’m so proud of the man you are. Watching you grow, lead, and show up for our family the way you do means everything to me.
You’re an incredible father, a loving husband, and truly my partner in life and best friend through everything.
I thank God for your life and for the heart you carry. Loving you and building this life together is something I never take for granted. 🙏🏽
So grateful for you, today and always. I love you baby 😘
And such a special thank you @crumbles__patisserie for his beautiful birthday cake and to @Blvd_shermanoaks and @The_kampai_guy for helping make this celebration so memorable ✨ truly one of the best spots for any event or special moment 😍
Don surprised me with an early Mother’s Day at @burke_williams 🤍
Lately, I’ve been reminded how important it is to slow down and take care of yourself not just physically, but emotionally too. Life doesn’t pause when your heart is carrying a lot, so finding small moments to rest, reset, and just breathe matters more than ever.
This was one of those moments for me… a gentle reminder that it’s okay to receive, to step away for a bit, and to pour back into yourself.
If you’ve been needing a sign to take care of you, this is it. Take advantage of their Mother’s Day specials and give yourself that time. You deserve it 🤍
Heaven gained my dad 🤍 This is something I never felt ready to say… my heart feels so heavy, and I already miss him more than I can put into words. But even in the pain, there’s a peace that holds me, knowing he’s no longer suffering. He’s healed, whole, and in the presence of Jesus. ❤️
My dancing partner, the joy and light in our family, and truly my best friend. you taught me everything… and everything I am is because of you.
Being your daughter was the greatest gift. You were my safety and comfort. I’m so grateful for our beautiful memories, and how you got to be such an incredible grandpa to Zaia and Zaiden. They will always carry your love with them. 🫶🏽
I don’t know how to do life without you here yet… but I do know I’ll carry everything you gave me. Your love, your strength, your faith with me every single day.
I’ll always be your little girl,
I love you more than words could ever say… and I will miss you for the rest of my life 🤍
We love you Papa V ❤️
Life has a way of humbling you in an instant. One moment you’re celebrating, laughing, making plans… and the next, everything changes with news you never saw coming.
It’s a reminder I’m feeling so deeply right now, nothing in this life is promised. Not tomorrow, not even the next hour. And as hard as that truth is, it also makes life so incredibly precious. 🤍
Hold your people a little closer. Say the words. Forgive quicker. Love louder. Be present in the small, ordinary moments we so easily rush through… because those are the moments that truly matter. ❤️
Through it all, I’m leaning on my faith trusting that even in pain, there is purpose, and even in heartbreak, there is love that carries us through.
Thank you all so much for your prayers, messages, and support it truly means the world to us 🙏🏽🤍
