Mothers Day

I read a poem on another blog a few days ago (don't remember where - sorry) but I just liked the theme of the poem more than the actual words.  The author talks about how thankful they were that God was kind enough to lend one of his angels for a while to be their mother.  

My Mom

I feel the same way about my mom.  She is an angel and I am so thankful for all of things that she did for me as I was growing up and still does for me now!  She is truly the most sweet and selfless example.  Her main goal in life seems to be to make her family happy.  Hopefully I can someday be more like her.  


Case in point - today Mom woke up feeling very unwell...after awhile she decided that a trip to the ER was needed.  My younger brother was ready to drive her to the hospital but before she would leave she managed to stand up long enough to put the roast in the crock pot for dinner!


**There is nothing too serious going on with her health - she is going to be home tomorrow.**

Scott's Mom

Ever since the day Scott and I were married, I have been blessed to have two moms.  My mother-in-law is such a great friend to me and she is another excellent example of how to be a mom.  She is such a strong person.  I have learned so much from her and I am glad that she is part of my life!


I love you MOMs!  Happy Mothers Day!


Now one last parting thought on Mothers Day is this hilarious e-card my friend Jen posted on her blog:  What We Say, What Mom Hears.  Click on the flowers in pairs to get maximum funniness.  (left pink, right pink; orange, orange; etc.)
