To Josh and Matthew, my dear sons my precious gifts from my loving God.
Being your Mother
means that I have had the opportunity to experience loving someone
more than I love myself.
I have learned what it's like
to experience joy and pain through someone else's life.
It has brought me pride and joy; your accomplishments touch me and thrill me like no one else's can.
It has brought me a few tears and heartaches at times, but it has taught me hope and patience.
It has shown me the depth, strength, and power of love.
Being your mother hasn't always been easy, and I'm sure I've said or done things that have hurt or confused you.
But no one has ever made me as satisfied as you do just by being happy.
No one has made me as proud as you do just by living up to your responsibilities.
No one's smile has ever warmed my heart like yours does;no one's laughter
fills my heart with delight as quickly as yours can.
No one's hugs feel as sweet,and no one's dreams mean as much to me as yours do.
No other memories of bad times have miraculously turned into important lessons or humorous stories;the good times have become precious treasures to relive again and again.
You are a part of me,and no matter what happened in the past or what the future holds,you are someone I will always accept,forgive, appreciate, adore,and love unconditionally.
Being your mother means that I've been given one of life's greatest gifts: YOU.~ Barbara Cage

So very precious, bless you.
Aw, that is so sweet! I love the picture of you three!! :)
Aw, that's so sweet! And the photo of the three of you is precious!
How sweet. I have always felt like instead of honoring mothers we need to honor our children. What a blessing they are and they enrich my life so much and give me strength and make life a true joy. Good post.
Samantha! What a beautiful post!!
You know.. as I was thinking of Mother's Day I kept thinking of my mom and not focusing on my joys of Motherhood too..
Thanks for this encouragement!!
That is a sweet trubute to your boys. I know how you feel, my boys are my world.
your package went out Fri. Priority mail. You should get it Monday or Tues.
Happy Mother's Day
Molly
Thank you all so much for your sweet comments,
I pray you all have a wonderful Mothers Day.
Thank you Molly again, for the give-away !
Being a mother has been the most rewarding thing I could have ever done with my life! I used to bemoan that once I was gone no one would know I had been here. I've never written great works, composed music, invented something and so on. Then God showed me that my contributions have an ETERNAL value as dave and I have brought up our children to know, accept and love Christ. there is no earthly reward that can satisfy like that!

That is very sweet! Thank you for always being there for Matthew and I. I truly could not think of a more kind, caring, loving soul for a mother. You've helped me through tough times and laughed with me through the good times. I will forever love and be there for you no matter what. Happy Mother's Day, we love you!
