Mothers

I missed Mother's day, and I know this is weeks late, but I wanted to post something about my mothers, especially since I posted about fathers. :)

I am so grateful for the mothers in my life. My childhood was one of complete happiness, our home was a place the spirit dwelled, and I remember mom was always right there waiting for me to come share my adventures with her (if she could ever get me to talk). :) I am grateful for the sacrifices she made on a daily basis, for the love she so willingly gave, and for the example she was and is of living the Gospel. Now I have two wonderful mothers who I can talk with as my friends, who I can go to for advice, and who can empathize with me when life gets rough. To the mothers in my life, I love you and wish you a Happy Mothers Day every day, because being a mother never ends!


"A mother-daughter relationship is where a daughter learns how to nurture by being nurtured. She is loved. She is taught and experiences firsthand what it feels like to have someone care about her enough to correct her while continuing to encourage and believe in her at the same time."

~M. Russell Ballard

"I remember my mother's prayers and they have always followed me. They have clung to me all my life."

~Abraham Lincoln
"God could not be everywhere, so he created mothers."
~Jewish Proverb

"Being a mother is learning about strengths you didn't know you had, and dealing with fears you didn't know existed.

~Linda Wooten

"A mom's hug lasts long after she lets go."
