I thank God for my mother (who is also my best friend)

‘In this mother-and-daughter relationship, we are fiercely for each other, fiercely opinionated and fiercely determined to set an example for what a mother-daughter relationship could and should look like,’ says Jessica Stark.

She is my mother, and I love her.

We are both the eldest daughter of our families, both highly prophetic, we both love all things cow print, we love a hearty Irish stew, both love to wander around a cathedral when on holiday, both refuse to eat lamb, we were both raised in ministry families and we both adore swimming, we both cannot stand black shoes with navy jeans, and we both moved from brunette to platinum blond simultaneously. The list could go on!
