Happy Mothers Day!

This past weekend me and my mom had the opportunity to go to the temple with just the two of us. As we were sitting there, I kept thinking how lucky I was to have her in my life and to be in the most important place with her, the temple. I am so grateful that I have a mother who attends the temple as often as she can, I am so grateful for her faithfullness and her ability to share her testimony with all those who surround her but most importantly our family. Growing up she always made it a priority to have family prayer and scripture study every morning. She always made it clear to us children how important the gospel was to her. I am so grateful she made the gospel a priority in our lives, it has been such a blessing in my life. She is such an incredible mother, with more patience and love then anyone I know. I admire the way she has raised us and I hope someday I will follow in her footsteps and achieve some of the qualities she posseses as a mother. It is hard to put in words how grateful I am for all she does, she is so self-less and always puts our family first. I am so lucky to have her in my life, she is the greatest mom and I feel blessed everyday of my life that she is mine.

This year I was especially lucky to get to celebrate mothers day, because I not only have one great mom I have 2! I am so blessed to have married into such a wonderful family. I am so grateful for billy's mom and the person she is. She has been such a blessing and she has made me feel so welcome in their family. I love her and I am so grateful for her constant example. Its crazy how much you can love someone you recently met. I believe one of the reasons I had such an instant love for her is because she gave me my greatest blessing, Billy. She raised such an admirable son and I am so grateful for the way she raised him and the important things she has taught him. I will be forever grateful to her for giving me Billy. I am so grateful for mothers day and the opportunity we have to recognize our mothers. I cannot wait to be a mom someday, I am so lucky to have such positive role models in my life. Happy Mothers Day!
