Mom From A to Z

Mom From A to Z....courtesy of Hallmark!
and from Loving Life

ABOVE and BEYOND
No one loves you like a Mom, and no one ever will

BELIEVES IN YOU
There's no superpower greater than a Mom who's in your corner.

CARING
Just try to make her stop giving the Mom-love (not to mention the Mom-advice)

DEALS WITH STUFF
So all you have to do is grow up feeling save and loved.

ENCOURAGING
You'll never have a better cheerleader....ever!

FORGIVES
the Annoying Little Things You Do
And if you're lucky, the major big things (in time)

GOES THE DISTANCE
Just when you're the least lovable, that's when you need her most-- and somehow she just knows

HEARS WHAT YOU CAN'T SAY
She can read you like a book...That's good...most of the time!

IMMOVABLE
You pushed the limits. She stood her ground. You survived. That was kind of the point.

JUGGLES ROLES LIKE A PRO
And makes it look easy!

KEEPS ON KEEPING ON
Her hopes and dreams and love for you just won't quit!

LET'S YOU MAKE YOUR OWN MISTAKES
And helps you get right back on track

MAKES YOU PROUD
You can see she's respected in the world for who she is

NURTURES YOU GROWING UP
She doesn't hand you everything, but she makes sure you're strong enough to go get it.

OUTSPOKEN
She knows her own mind and has her own voice.

PATIENT
You don't even remember how annoying your toddler self could be. She doesn't either.

QUICK WITH PRAISE
And even quicker to brag on you to others.

RADIANT
Her smile is always beautiful, because it's where love lives.

SPOILS YOU ROTTEN (sometimes)
Not that you mind

TIRELESS
Did she ever want a break? (uh, maybe....) Did she get one? (you're kidding, right?)

UNPREDICTABLE
She doesn't let life or expectations put her in a box.

VALUED
As a mom, a mentor and, more and more, as a friend.

WISE
Where would you be if you didn't have her on speed dial?

EXEMPLARY
The best parts of yourself you learned from watching her.

YOUNG IN SPIRIT
She knows birthdays don't count--love-filled moment and memories do.

ZERO TOLERANCE FOR fibs
That's why you always tell her the truth. And the truth is that you love her for all these reasons and hundreds more.

What a Mother's Day!

I know that Mother's Day can come with mixed emotions. For those we can not have children, for those who have lost children and for Mother's who wonder do I measure up, I'm I doing a good job.

I had a wonderful morning at church, came home and was showered with gifts. I got to take a long nap and woke up to an amazing dinner. (Thank you Donny and to all my kids) I love you!
