On this Mother's Day, as I have contemplated the joys of being a Mom, I have thought a lot about my own Mom. I have been blessed to have a Mom who truly put myself and my siblings first in everything. Even now when the chips are down and I struggle, my Mom is quick to offer help or try and help me see the positive. I am the Mother that I am today because of the Mom that she has been to me. I have learned so much at her hands. I have learned to cook, clean, sew, canning, and many other things. But by far the greatest things I have learned from my Mom are of a spiritual nature; I have learned love, compassion, true service, and selflessness. I have seen my Mom give without a thought for herself. I have been one to whom she has given so freely. She is a wonderful Mother, and Grandmother. Happy Mother's Day, Mom!!
You are absolutely right. Your mom is amazing. And she raised some pretty amazing mothers herself!
ReplyDeleteI love that picture. Your Mom is such a beauty and so are her girls. Aren't we lucky gals to have such good momma's?
ReplyDeleteGinger's a pretty perfect mom, I agree! But she's an even better friend - the most important to me in the whole world! :) Lucky US!
