Lily's loving tone and words of reassurance calmed Mia's fears, and she fell asleep feeling safe in her mother's arms. As Mia grew older and went off to college, Lily's love never wavered. She would call and text Mia every day, checking in on her and making sure she was doing well. When Mia faced failures and heartbreaks, Lily was there to wipe away her tears and encourage her to keep going.
