Moms Day...

MOMMA!!!! I love you so much!

My Mom is so wonderful in so many ways!
She is so loving, a hard worker, and by far one of my biggest supporters!

She is beautiful both inside and out.
Always helping me to be better and to strive for what I can accomplish! Always giving me the best advice and helping me see what is in store for me. and never giving up on me...
My Mom has shown me what it means to live... To always work hard and treat everyone fairly. She is so compassionate and cares for our family and everyone else that she comes in contact with. She is truly my best friend and I am so lucky to have a mother that loves and cares for me as much as she does..
Mom, Thank you for EVERYTHING!! I hope that when I become a mother, I can be half the mother that you are!

“Motherhood is near to divinity. It is the highest, holiest service to be assumed by mankind. It places her who honors its holy calling and service next to the angels.- Elder Russel M. Nelson

"However, mothers need not fear. When mothers know who they are and who God is and have made covenants with Him, they will have great power and influence for good on their children.” Julie B. Beck

Life is a gift...

Today, before you say an unkind word, think of someone that cant speak at all...
Before you complain about the taste of your food, think of someone who has nothing to eat...
Before you complain about your significant other, think of someone who is crying out to God for a companion...
Today, before you complain about life, think of someone who went too early...
Before whining about the distance you have to drive, think of someone who walks the same distance on their feet...
When you are tired and complain about your job, think of those who are unemployed, those that are disabled, and those who wish they had your job...
And today, when depressing thoughts seem to get you down, put a smile on your face and remember...
Life is beautiful and it's time to live it!
