MOTHER'S

The mother's I know are wonderful.

My own mom who while growing up we did not get along well. I wanted to be a bad child and she wanted to help me in any way she could. Now that I am Mom I know how she feels. She now is asking to help and I try to accept the help when ever I can. I feel that my relationship with my Mom is better now than it ever has been. When ever I am home on a Thursday she will stop by and visit with us. I looked forward to the visit each week. Now that I am working I miss those visits.

My Mother in law has been a wonderful help and source in my life. She has taken me in as one of her own. We are helping her by having her for dinner each week. So she can have the time and visits she wishes to have with her children. She enjoys my yummy food and visits with Danny and I and she loves playing with the children. She has helped me through some tough times I've had with Danny and has always been there for me.

My 2nd Mom she came into my life only a couple of years ago, when my Dad re-married. She is a wonderful mom and help to me. She has been there to help when I could not find help anywhere else. She enjoys see us and the children. She has a big heart and is always finding ways to help or give us her love.

My Grandma Sonntag she has been such a strength to me. She is always happy and loving to everyone. I have never heard her say an unkind thing about anyone. When grandpa died I knew it was hard for her but she did not show her sadness when around her family. I remember a time just after and I came to visit while family was away and we did not want to leave her alone. I made chicken enchiladas and we watched Singing in the rain. She had never seen that before and she just loved it. I loved having that time with her and enjoying her presence.

My Grandma Shepard I always loved go to grandma's when I was young she always had such good food and I loved playing with her toys. She always loves having her family around to visit with. I remember one time when I had to stay at her house she let me sleep in her bed. She wanted to make it as comfortable as possible so she let me listen to classical music to help me sleep. I remember always enjoying that time with her. She has showed me such strength in all she does. She has worked so hard in all she has done. And has helped me see that we have to work to enjoy life and the blessings of the gospel.

Thank you to all the Mom's out there. I could go on forever about the mother's I know. These are the ones I think about when mother's day comes. All my sister's are mother's and I have learned so much from them as well. I would be writing a novel.

HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY TO ALL!
