It’s Mother’s Day, and we at JohnPac want to give a big shoutout to all the hardworking mothers out there – including our own! It’s no secret that being a mother is one of the toughest jobs in the world. Not only do you have to take care of your children, but you also must juggle work and family life.
Mothers have a special place in the workplace, especially at JohnPac. Their hard work, dedication, and attention to detail make them invaluable to our company.
For Mother’s Day this year we wanted to highlight a few of our mothers for some insight into how it feels for them to be a mom.
Courtney Knight
President of CSRs
What is the most rewarding part about being a mother?
“The most rewarding part about being a mother is being able to spend time with the little beings you made and making the best of the moment. Seeing the smiles on their faces and knowing you had a part in that is a feeling like no other.”
If you could offer one piece of mom advice, what would it be?
“Take time for yourself. It’s hard sometimes with three little ones, but it’s well worth it. You won’t regret it!”
Ellen Comeaux
Customer Service Representative
What is the most rewarding part about being a mother?
“The most rewarding thing about being a mother for me is watching my children grow into good people. When I see them making good decisions on their own, and being proud of who they are and what they believe in, it is the best reward for all of the hard work put in.”
If you could offer one piece of mom advice, what would it be?
“HAVE FUN WITH YOUR KIDS! Being a mom comes with a lot of responsibility and work, but remember you are there to have fun and enjoy them too!”
Christina Doucet
Production Clerk
What is the most rewarding part about being a mother?
“The most rewarding part of being a mother is having a daughter that has become everything a mother could ask for and more! Having a child is the best gift ever.”
If you could offer one piece of mom advice, what would it be?
“The best advice I could offer to a mother is teach your child to be able to take care of themselves and not depend on anyone and if you want anything in life you have to work hard and make it happen. Teach them to be very independent.”
Chandra Delco
Bulk Team Leader
What is the most rewarding part about being a mother?
“Seeing your kids grow up to be successful adults and seeing their smiles on their faces and hearing them say mom I love you! Thanks for everything you did for us!”
If you could offer one piece of mom advice, what would it be?
“Be a parent first then a friend next. Love your kids. Lead by example. You can do and be anything if you keep God first and put your mind to it.”
Mary Garcia
Bulk (Sew)
What is the most rewarding part about being a mother?
“Being a mother is not just giving birth. Being a mother is not just raising a child. It is oriented towards respect and giving trust. The most gratifying thing about a child is their smile.”
If you could offer one piece of mom advice, what would it be?
“As a mother my advice is that you should keep in mind no one can occupy your place. Take care of them, and give them a roof over their head. You are not eternal, and you must prepare for it so that they are prepared in life.”
Dania Castillo
Bulk (Sew)
What is the most rewarding part about being a mother?
“Receiving love from my sons.”
If you could offer one piece of mom advice, what would it be?
“Be an example for your children!”
Samantha Lowman
Regional Sales Manager
What is the most rewarding part about being a mother?
“The most rewarding thing about being a mother is the absolute privilege it is. To be a part of molding them into happy, adventurous, generous humans is a feeling you cannot put into words. I feel like the luckiest person alive to be their Mommy.”
If you could offer one piece of mom advice, what would it be?
“Soak in each and every second you have with them at every age, time is a thief. Make lasting memories and love on them as much as possible.”
We’d like to thank the mothers of JohnPac for everything they do, as well as wish all the moms out there a wonderful Mother’s Day!
