My Mom is a remarkable woman and an amazing Mom!
Mom,
It was 32 years ago that you were celebrating your first Mother’s Day. You were only 20 years old and I was only 2 months old. I am sure that I was sleeping through the night with a belly full of formula and rice cereal, no doubt. This is my Mother’s Day present to you this year. 32 years later:
You are an incredible woman and an amazing MOM! You exhaust yourself taking care of those around you and you truly only want what is best for those you love. You give of yourself tirelessly without expecting anything in return and you find true joy in the happiness of your children.
You have always been a great source of strength for Colt and me. While growing up we knew we could always count on you and now as adults, we still turn to you for advice, support and encouragement.
Mom, you always place our needs above your own and make sure that we are well provided for and that we always have what we need. Thank you for always striving to make us feel important and showing us how much we are loved. I cannot think of an instance when I have ever doubted your love for me.
Thank you for always giving of your time, your energy. Thank you for always knowing what I need, even when I don’t know it myself. Thank you for being such a blessing in my life. Thank you for being you.
I count myself blessed because it is a honor to have you as my Mom. I am so thankful God created me and allows me to be your daughter. I count it a great joy to spend the rest of our lives not only as mother and daughter, but as friends.
Happy Mother’s Day!
We love you!
Jim, Stephanie, Jake, Judd, Anna Kate, and Sadie!
p.s. I chose the picture above and not the one from the blizzard at our house! You know that you love me!
I think the picture from the blizzard should go viral on the web, starting on THIS BLOG!
