MY MOM

She's the one who's had the most impact in all the choices I've made.

#1 She put her faith first....even when it meant having family turn away---Her father even refused to give her away at her wedding! Thankfully in time things did mend and they are closer now...but for year is was very tough.

#2 aside from GOD her family (my dad,brother, and me)  everything she did was to make one or all of us as happy as she could. Now with the grand babies-there just another generation to spread her love too.

#3 she wanted to stay home but knew my Dads job alone would cut it -- She started her own child care right in our home. There was one summer we had 7 kids that were coming on different days--it was great playmates for my brother and I

#4 I've seen her struggle over the last few years with physical and mental issues, that I'll not get into very deeply, but even at her darkest moment(and they've been pretty low) she'd call me or my brother just to say "I Love You!!

#5 She inspiries me because watching her I feel there is HOPE FOR ME AS A MOM!
