My Momma!

Dear Mom,
I sending you this "blog card" to say Happy Mother's Day! I love you and miss you so much. Let me tell you why. I love how you have never stopped learning. I admire your knowledge of the gospel and your dedication to it. I wish being your daughter meant I could download all your knowledge into my own head. I miss calling you when I have to give a lesson or a talk. Don't worry - you've taught me well and I am so thankful for that.
You have always believed in me and told me I could do anything. Your faith in me has meant so much.
I love your love of art...sewing, decorating, painting, and on and on. I loved coming along with you to every wallpaper store in the county when I was little and now I love having your help/assistance/opinion when I decorate my own home. (I also thought you and dad might like to have a moment remembering these chairs. You'll sit in them again in 14 months.)
I love seeing what kind of wife you are. You and dad are like highschoolers sometimes. I love that you are both so in love. I have learned a lot by watching you support and uplift him.
I especially love seeing you as a grandma.
You always have something to pull of your purse and every grandchild knows it. Don't worry, I've been buying Rex tic-tacs while you're gone.
Thank you for being so proud of us and sharing our joy.
So, here's to you, mom.
I'm sure glad I was sent to you. Thanks for waiting around that extra month while I was waiting to make my appearance. (That means even more to me right now that I'm 8.5 months along.)
Russia is so lucky to have you. I love you so much!
Happy Mother's Day!
