A Mother like NO Other . . .

To all the women out there . . . Happy Mothers Day!

Most especially though . . .

HaPpY MotHeRs dAy, MOM!
I am the luckiest girl that ever there was! Honestly. There isn't a day that goes by that I don't rely on the incredible example my mother is, as I fumble through my own existence of motherhood . My mom is an AMAZING woman of strength, faith, generosity, love, compassion, service, patience, creativity, charity, selflessness, and beauty--inside and out. I could never say enough to adequately describe what a wonderful person she is. That she raised six children (maintaining her sanity) and raised them well is a testimony of her character.

I love you, MOM!

Thanks for the countless sacrifices you made for me. Thanks for teaching me in so many ways what it means to be a good mother. Thanks for always lending a listening ear and for supporting me in ways no one else can. I pray, for my children, that I can become more like you and give them a life as beautiful as the one I have because of you. I hope you had a wonderful day and that you know how much I wish I could give you a real hug instead of this cyber one!

To the other influential mothers who have touched my life. . . Thank you for the examples you are to me and for the ways that you've enriched my life and those of my children. I love you, too.

To my wonderful husband and my three sweet children . . . Thanks for making this day such a special one! I could have no greater joy and feel no greater love than I do as a mother and wife. I am truly blessed!
