Happy Mother's Day - from Chris

Happy Mother's Day Mom,I guess this day means more to me now that we have our own little person running around.

I am grateful for all the time you spent creating an environment where we felt needed and safe. I always have liked being at home. I think that there are fewer people in the world that can say that these days. I loved our picnics at Shipps Park (next to Eastman) and when you would take me Visiting teaching to the Millers and Eva Cameron's. I don't know how I remember that stuff, but I do. Thank you for taking care of me through all of my injuries and mistakes, helping me with projects and homework, for needed hugs and words of encouragement. Thank you for teaching us the gospel and reading the scriptures. I still have retained much of what I know about the scriptures from listening to you read them to us. Thank you for not sending us to daycare. thank you for being a mother instead of a mom trying to be popular with her kids. Thank you for having a sense of humor and just being yourself sometimes. Thank you for being long suffering with our weaknessess.Thank you for being a great example, I'm glad that I was sent to you!



Love you Mom!Chris
