Happy Birthday, Mom!

From you, I learned…

  • Freedom through Christ
  • What it means to sacrifice
  • How to cut up and fry the best chicken ever
  • How to keep a clean house
  • How to relax in a not so clean house
  • To reach out to those in need
  • Respect for the House of God
  • That some days, I have to give more in spite of what I get in return
  • To give every job my best
  • The importance of keeping my word

From you, I learned how to be a mom.  I learned… 

  • How to nurture
  • How to swaddle a baby
  • How to love when your heart is aching
  • The importance of surrendering your children to Christ

From you, I learned how to be a grandmother.  And I’m certain that because of that, I am more prepared than I ever thought I’d be. 

I love you!

Your little girl
