Mother's Day

Today is Mother's Day...a reminder of all the wonderful blessings I have in my life.  A reminder of how my children brighten my day, help me to make better decisions, and create a home with love, excitement, hope, and energy.

Today is Mother's Day...a reminder of all the wonderful things my mother has done, is doing, or may do in the future.  All the sacrifices she made for her kids when we were growing up, and all the love she provided even when we made it hard.




Today is Mother's day...a reminder of how lucky I am to have beautiful sisters-in-law who consistently show love to my children, and amaze me at their level of love for their own children.  A reminder of how far we have all come since first meeting each other, and pride in knowing these amazing women, being able to call them friends, and family.

Today is Mother's Day...a reminder of how blessed I am to have my mother-in-law in my life.  A woman who gives her all to the family, loves us deeply, and never fails to offer support when we are going through our various trials.

Today is Mother's Day...a reminder of all the wonderful friends I have who are mothers as well.  Women who have been my example to raising children.  Women who have nurtured my own children along side theirs.  Women I am not afraid to call upon with my own questions, feelings of doubt, or celebratory moments.

I will never know why I am so blessed in knowing and having my children in my life.  I feel the Lord has blessed me beyond measure.  I will never know why I am so blessed in knowing and having my mom,sisters in law, mother in law and wonderful friends.  I can only thank the Lord for allowing me to have their support.
