Kate Garraway Quotes

Who ran to help me when I fell, And would some pretty story tell, Or kiss the place to make it well? My mother.

If I go away, I take a little picture of my son. It's in a frame with a speaker, and he recorded a birthday message for me when he was nine or 10. I can't listen to it without filling up.

Home is where my mom is.

I love my parents in the way most children would: for having been there at every point in my youth and childhood, ready to pick me up when I fell and support me when I stumbled.

Every mother wishes the best for her children.

My mother always seemed to me like a fairy princess: a radiant being possessed of limitless riches and power. She shone for me like the evening star. I loved her dearly.

My earliest memory is my mom picking me up after I had fallen down, giving me a big hug and reading me 'Goodnight Moon.' From that moment, to this one, every single memory I have of my mom is that regardless of what was happening in her life, she was always, always there for me.

What I want most is for my son to be proud of me.

My parents have always been very supportive.

Carrie is my child, and I love her with every ounce of strength I possess.

My son is the most important thing in my life.

When my mother was around, she would insist on celebrating my birthdays.

Even when my mum used to edit the paper she would come home, put us to bed and then go back to the office. She must have been exhausted. She worked on Sunday papers so I always had her on Mondays. I loved Mondays! She would always be waiting for me outside school. I remember feeling very loved.

I take my kids to school. It's what keeps you normal.

I've had two great loves: my mother and my daughter.

The unparalleled love of a mother is always there for the kids, specially when they're growing up and about to leave the family and go away.

I was always aware Mom was someone who was recognised, admired and loved.

My parents have always been super supportive.

It's weird to not know what a family is. Not know what a mother's love is. And not really know what a hug is or anything.

I have a certain memory of the way in which my father loved me until I was 10, and it was unconditional and eternal. I get to carry that for the rest of my life, but on a practical level after age 10, it's just me sort of figuring it out.

Really just about the only remembrance I have from when I was very young is the way Daddy used to place me on the refrigerator and then say, 'Jump!' and I'd jump into his arms. It was so much fun for me that even when I got too large for it to happen, I still wanted to do it anyway!

As a child, my mother would read to me late into the night. I didn't enjoy it at the time but she always used to say that the inheritance she was going to leave us was a good education.

I think about the milestones from my childhood and what it will be like to watch our kids go through them. Taking Riley to her first day of school was a whirlwind. I can't imagine what middle school is going to be like, and high school, and graduation.

My mom is my rock, and I'm blessed to have her as my mother. I can talk to her whenever I need to or want to. She supports me through thick and thin, and I'll always be there for her.

My mom has been calling me Peep my whole life. That's how I got the name.
