In honor of this upcoming weekend, I would like to take several days and pay tribute to some special mothers I know and tell them "Thank you!"
THANK YOU for...
Taking my firstborn son's heart and lovingly embracing it
Becoming my first daughter
Being a wonderful friend
Giving my son two wonderful children and in turn making me a NANNA
Looking to the Lord for guidance in all aspects of your life
Raising your children to know of God's love
Training your children to love and honor the Lord and their family
Teaching them to share and show concern for others
Showing them how to thank God each day for their blessings
Encouraging them to seek the Lord first for their needs
Inspiring them to see the wonder of God in the world around us
Using your time wisely by planning ahead
Laughing and playing with your family and friends
Preparing nutritious meals for your family and shopping frugally
Creatively impacting everything you touch
Blogging and suggesting I might enjoy it too
Taking your family to church and having bible studies
Showing the love of God
You have been a mother for 6 years, 6 months, and 8 days and have accomplished so much during that time. I am very proud of you and love you from the bottom of my heart.
Happy Mother's Day, Carrie!

WOW! That is so incredibly sweet of you, I am extremely flattered and feel completely unworthy. I feel so lacking in many of these areas but I truly and thankful that you think so highly of me as a mom and daughter in law. I am truly blessed to have a great mother-in-law...so many do not have the privilege of saying that!
I don't know what else to say... thank you!!!!
You wrote a very beautiful and touching tribute to Carrie.
