Well, today is that blessed day called Mother's Day. I just want to say a few things about my Mother. More like the ten things I like most about my Mom. I could say a lot more than ten, but it would take a really long time.
10. My Mom makes the best meals. It never fails, Mom's homecookin' beats all. There is nothing better than comin' home after a long day...or several months away from home...and tasting of the goodness that Mom so lovingly prepares and slaves over just so that it feeds us and tastes good.
9. My Mom is so practical and frugal. For most people, that is one of those kinds of things that you don't necessarily want to be complimented on. Most people prefer compliments about their hair, or jewelery(if your a girl), or clothes. But because my Mom is this way, she helped our family through some really tough times.
8. My Mom is sooo patient. I have never met a more patient person...towards her kids at least. I am ashamed to say that we put her through the ringer sometimes....more than we should have....and she was still so loving and willing to teach us and help us learn, even though she claims we gave her her one gray hair.
7. My Mom is so loving and giving. She will sacrifice more of her own wants and desires to make sure that everyone is ok and comfortable, especially her kids. I learned just recently that when I was a much younger lad, when our family was going through a particularly difficult time, that she sacrificed getting some necessities for herself and her health so that her kids would be warm and full.
6. My Mom is not one to question....in most cases. When something comes a long or happens that might be a trial or a tribulation, and almost be unbearable to some, she takes these things in stride and rolls with the punches, always keeping a very positive attitude. She won't question or ask why things happen the way they do or why things happen to her, she just accepts them and moves on.
5. My Mom is extremely caring. She is currently serving as the Stake Relief Society President and has told me personally on numerous occasions about what is happen with her sisters as a whole. She is smart enough not to get into specifics, but as a whole, lets me know how much she loves her calling and those she serves and how she wants the best for each of them in their different situations.
4. My Mom loves the Lord. Through her example, she has shown me(though it has taken me an unfortunately long time to learn this) that she loves the Lord. It is through her example, as well as my Dad's, that I learned how gain my own personal relationship with the Lord.
3. My Mom shows her love for her kids. She is never afraid to tell us that she loves us and show it to us through hugs and kisses and all of those other "gross" things that kids get embarrassed about. And as afor mentioned, she will sacrifice a ton so that her kids are ok. She loves us enough to make us work, and not buy us the most fancy things.
2. My Mom loves my dad, and she is not afraid to show it. I never have to worry about my parents separating or divorce. I know that even though they may disagree sometimes, they love each other enough to recognize and comprimize. That, the fact that they tell us all the time that they love the other, and their interesting and sometimes "gross" PDA's tell all.
1. The greatest thing I love about my Mom is that she is just the best mom their ever was. I would never trade my mom for anything there ever was or ever could be. I love you Mom.
