Happy Mother's Day!


I have truly been blessed to have such a wonderful mother (front, center). She has always been so supportive. She has such wisdom. I have always loved my mother, but not until I was grown did I realize how lucky I was to have her in my life. Whenever I have a problem, I usually go to her for advice. She always seems to just know what to do when problems arise. Her faith in the Lord is outstanding. She does not stress over things the way I do. Life has not always been easy for her, but still she is not bitter. I don't know how she learned to be such a wonderful mother for her own mother died when she was eleven years old. She has the patience of Job. If I can be just half the mother she is, I would still be a great mom. Thank you, Mom, for being my mom and teaching me what it feels like to be loved unconditionally. I love you!

I also want to thank my children for teaching me to love on a whole new level. There is nothing greater than being a mom. The pride (good pride, not "proud" pride, lol) a mother feels when her child learns something new, or accomplishes a new task is incredible. Holidays would not be as exciting without having excited children around. There is no greater joy than when your baby gets old enough to truly recognize you and shows excitement when he or she sees you!

Happy Mother's Day to all!!
