Happy Mother's Day!

Yes I know I am a day behind but I feel like I haven't looked at my computer for 2 days. It was a good weekend and a wonderful first Mother's Day. Don and Brody took me out for breakfast and it was WONDERFUL! YUM. We spent the rest of the day celebrating with his Mom for her 60th birthday and Mother's Day. It was a fun day.

 I thought of and prayed for all the moms I know and love. I have many mother's in my lives that I learn from regularly about being a mom, you also inspire me, encourage & support me. I hope that you know who you are. I am so thankful for all of you. 

As far as my mom goes. I love you so much. There are many things that I have learned from you and that have shown me how I want to be as a mom. I am so thankful for the sacrifices that you made for us. I don't think that I have ever told you how much I have seen you sacrifice but I am so grateful for you. Becoming a mom was something that I thought would be natural for me because I have always wanted to be a mom. It wasn't natural. It's been a challenge but it's been an amazing challenge. The point of me saying this is that I didn't go into being a mother with the challenges that you had. I can only imagine what you had to learn and how you had to grow. Becoming a mom has helped me to see you in a new light. I can see that you did the best you could with the hand that was dealt to you. I am proud of you, and I can see how strong you were and are.  One of the most important things that I have taken from you is the importance of family being a priority. I have never doubted that you love me, that you are interested in my life, and that I am a priority to you. Thank you for everything that you have taught me and for being a wonderful committed mother.
