The great ladies that gave us life, raised us, and loved us!

Happy Mother's Day! I missed being able to see you today! I want you to know how much I love you and appreciate the great example you are to me. You taught us kids well and have always been there for us even when it may not have been the most convenient. I appreciate how you love us for who we are and that you believe in us and can see the best in us. And now that I am grown you are one of my greatest friends. I am truly blessed to have you as my mom! I love you!

Happy Mothers Day. What to say about my mom. First, My mom has been one of the truly leveling influences in my life. She has got to be one of the most patient, modest and even people I know. I watched her drop everything to play with her grandkids and I remember her doing the same for us. The house could be on fire and she would still choose to stop and put her kids and grandkids priorities before her own. Heaven knows that the lot of us made life hard for her on more than one occasion, but we were always clothed, fed, and loved. I remember even into high school sitting on my mom's lap after a bad day and being rocked to sooth away the pain. Several times when I was working late nights and early morning at our neighbors sheep farm she would let me stay home from school just so I could sleep a little more. The tons of pets we brought into her life as well as the varied emotional and physical distresses and through it all she still loved us and with a love that we always knew ran so deep the even rivaled the love of God. Thanks for being such a great mom. I may not do the greatest job of showing it all the time but I do

Ah....you are getting me all teary eyed. Those were very nice compliments.
As you know now, motherhood has its ups and downs and is the most rewarding thing that we can do in this life.
Wow! If I didn't know better, I would think that was Candice!
