Happy Mother's Day!

I have the most wonderful mother on Earth. Love her!

Happy Mother's Day to all of you!

Happy Mother's Day, Mom. With Love.

I am thankful for a mother who continues to mother me; who even now, makes herself available when I need her (which is often). I am thankful for her example to me of a woman who desires to be home full-time for her children, who has the necessary education and skills to work outside the home but chooses to put the needs of her family first. I am thankful for all the times she sat on the edge of my bed late into the night and listened. I am thankful for her joy in womanhood, and for her example of being a loving wife. My mom never says a mean thing about anyone. She genuinely cares about every soul she meets, and it shows. She is a beautiful, energetic grammy, and my children adore her. She is also an example to me of faithfulness. When times get hard, she puts her trust in the Lord. And He hears her prayers. I am thankful for her friendship and love.

I love you, Mom. Happy Mother's Day.

A Lovely Mother's Day

I intended to write up something spectacular for Mother's Day because there probably isn't any subject I feel more passionately about than motherhood.But, in wanting to write something profound, I felt intimidated and didn't write anything.

Maybe it's just a way to rationalize laziness, but I decided my whole blog is a tribute to motherhood. At least I hope it is.

I LOVE being a mother. And, speaking of mothers, my own mama is quite incredible.

I'm so thankful to be a mom to my babies. I love being a woman. It is all I ever really wanted to be.

And I'm thankful for the other women in my life who have helped me embrace motherhood through their glowing examples. You know who you are. Well, some of you probably don't. Some of you probably don't know how much you buoy the women around you and lighten their loads.

With a smile.

With a hug.

With a story.

To Mothers and Women Who Care: I love you. You may never know how much you do.
