My Mom

I love my mom soooooooo much! She is the best mom in the world. She is loving, kind, giving, and an amazing example to me. She is so patient, which a mom of 10 should be! She loves us kids so much and would do anything for us. She and my dad are goodly parents who raised me to have a strong testimony of love for my Savior, Jesus Christ. I wish and hope that I can be the type of mother that she is for me with my own children. I wanted her to know that I love her and feel so blessed to have her as my mom!! I think the most cherished of childhood memories I have is when I was in school and on the first day of school, she would wait outside in the lawn until we got home. She would give us a big hug and ask us how our first day of school went. I loved it. As I got older, she stopped doing it, but one day in the summer, I mentioned how much I had liked it that she had done that. Well, my Senior year of high school, I was walking home from school, and there she was, in the front lawn, waiting for me to welcome me home. I loved it so much!

My mom is always there for me and I thank her for loving me so much! YOU ARE THE BEST MOM EVER!!!!

That's so cute, your mom rocks! I love that picture of her too. I love how she lets my kids call her Gramma too.

Your mom is awesome! She was such a great Young Woman's President the last few months i was still a young woman. She was so respectful of hte fact that i was ready to move on but still tried to keep me included. And plus, she raised all of you.
