Mom & her daughters
"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." -First Presidency
My mom is an angel. And I'm so lucky that she is my angel, and always will be. When I was younger I remember saying that if I turned out like my mom I would be so happy. I hope that I'm following in her footsteps, even though they are large prints to fill.
Mom - thank you for everything you do. Thank you for your constant prayers on my family and my behalf. Thank you for always being right there to help me, before I even know that I need help. Thank you for your love and support. Thank you for being the BEST Grandma ever!!! Thank you for always sharing your talents. Thank you for always creating opportunities for us to talk and spend time together. Thank you for being so patient. Thank you for your thoughtful notes of encouragement and love. Thank you for your phone calls. Thank you for always giving me "Loves". Thank you for always listening to me. But most of all... Thank you for always sharing your testimony with me. I know that you have a testimony of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. I'm so thankful that I've been sealed to you and Dad for eternity. Thank you for your continual example of service, charity, and humility. I love you so much! Happy Mother's Day!
Love,
Kristen

A Mother's Love
by Doreen D. Dorth
A mother's love is special,
In oh, so many ways.
She's there to help and guide you,
Throughout the coming days.
She's sad when you are crying,
She's happy when you laugh.
She's one that you can count on,
When no one else is left.
A mother has a special way,
Of easing all your pain.
She's warmth and understanding,
Her tenderness remains.
Don't ever doubt your mother's love,
There's always more to give.
Return the love that's shared with all,
Then she will always live.
In oh, so many ways.

Don't ever doubt your mother's love,
There's always more to give.
Return the love that's shared with all,
Then she will always live.
