There is nothing quite like a mother’s love for her sons. Especially when you have a mother who is as loving, caring and nurturing as Dawn Vitale.
Stephen and Luke are the direct beneficiaries of the outpouring of love Dawn showers on others. They are her sons who she would do anything for, and she has proved this time and again.
Dawn is someone who thinks a little differently and brings about different perspectives in life, but that is what makes her who she is. At the end of the day, she can brighten any room she walks into, and she certainly prioritizes her boys above all else.
“She’s super loving and caring,” Stephen said. “She puts her kids before anything else in the world. She calls me five times a day and makes sure I’m good and well fed. She made sure we ate before she did. She loves to show us she cares, buying us things after being reassured it isn’t needed. She loves to buy us things to show she loves us and supports us.”
Stephen and Luke are always top of mind for Dawn, and this is not something you see quite to the extent she takes her love for them. She goes above and beyond to make sure Stephen and Luke have everything they need, and she goes above and beyond to instill strong morals and values into them.
“She was always focused on teaching us to treat others right and have manners and respect others,” Luke said. “She instills God and religion into us. That was one of the ways she showed she cares. She is super proud for no reason. Even for the littlest things we do.”
From praising her boys for going to the grocery store by themselves to cheering them on throughout their extracurricular activities growing up, the support and encouragement Dawn has shown her boys is amazing.
It’s not just them either. She is a great friend to many, and she is even willing to stay up til the wee hours of the night to talk to her friend in Hawaii. She is all about keeping her friends close and not letting her relationships slip through the cracks.
Her personality is completely unmatched as well. Dawn is a very bold individual, and while not everyone may understand her, the important people in her life do.
“She’s definitely loud,” Luke said. “She has a loud character, not just in her voice, but in how she goes about things. Mom wears loud colors. She is also pure. She doesn’t care what others think about her either, but in the best way. She doesn’t let those little things bother her.”
As long as she is able to make her sons happy and she is invested in her friend’s lives, Dawn is happy. She is nonjudgmental in her own ways, even when others may be judgmental, and that is one of the many reasons why she is considered to be such a special lady.
Well, that and the fact that she is there for the people who matter most to her, and they all love her for who she is.
“We might not always show it, but we love her. We see the unconditional love and it is appreciated. We want to remind her how much she means to us.” – Stephen & Luke
