HAPPY MOTHERS DAY!


HAPPY MOTHERS DAY!!!!

Chris & I are two lucky people. We have awesome moms! They are sweet, kind, generous, fun, and loving. We both love our moms very much! And I know we both are grateful to have such great mother-in-laws :) We love you both very much, and hope you have an amazing day!
& Mom, I wish I could be there to give you a big hug and tell you I love you in person!

Today I was asked to speak in church on Mothers, and frankly it was the easiest topic in the world....I could have gone on for days & days about all the things mothers do, all the wonderful things about them, and how they have a divine role. I truly am my mothers daughter and am so grateful for that! I just hope I can be half the woman my mother is. I love you mom!

Linda, thanks for always making me laugh, being my friend & making me feel at home. I am so grateful for all you've done for me. I love you!

For Lauren, Crystal, Katie, Jen, and Lorena~ Happy Mothers Day! You guys are amazing mothers and I know you are raising wonderful & sweet children! I am so grateful to have you guys as examples! Watching you makes me want to join the club! (dont worry, some day Chris will warm up to it). I hope you have a wonderful day!

Ashley & Jeni- Young mama & mama to be---you inspire me. You amaze me! I am so happy & excited that you guys will raise (or are raising) pretty babies!

And to all the other mothers out there, our family, our friends-HAPPY MOTHERS DAY GIRLS!!

Awesome talk today Mari! The way you talked about your own mom was really touching, even though I don't know her I got a sense of her. Thanks for your wonderful words and the effort you put into your talk this morning.

It's a darn shame that we just happened to miss Sacrament meeting this morning. I'm sure it was amazing.
