Mother's Day




We had a very good mother's day. We were able to spend the weekend with Richard's parents. As I sit and think about mother's day I can only think of how blessed I am in so many ways. I am truly blessed to have a wonderful mother. She is a very strong women (even if she does not see it herself). She has always been there for me and my family throughout the years. She raised me in a christian home and has made me who I am today. I don't thank her enough for all she does for me.
I am also blessed to have such a wonderful mother in law. I hope she understands how much she means to me and my family. My family would not be where we are today if she had not raised such a wonderful son. I think about all of the daughter in laws that complain about their mother in law so I know I am blessed to have such a wonderful mother in law.
Last but most importantly I think about my own children. I am truly blessed with two wonderful children. Ashlyn and Clayton are my life. I cherish every moment I get to spend with them. I have loved watching them grow up and I pray that I am the mother that God wants me to be. I want to raise my children to know God and follow God. I want when they look at me that I shine the love of Jesus. I want to use my words to encourage and build up their lives and not tear them down. God has given me two precious gifts and I want to give them back to him and raise them in his will.
