Live Gave Me The Gift Of You, My Mother

I have several Mothers in my life. However, there is only one that takes the cake. That is my mother, Debbie.

On this Mother's Day, I wanted to take a moment to write about how much she means to me.

My Mom is incredible. She has spent her life building a name for herself. Anyone and everyone that crosses her path instantly becomes her friend, and once you've become a friend of my Mother's you will be her friend till her dying day. She never forgets a face, and everyone is of value in her eyes.

My Mom is brilliant. She has worked hard her whole life, and continues to do so even to this day. She values hard work, and has thrived to teach her children the value of it as well.

Beauty doesn't even begin to describe my sweet Mother. She is gorgeous both inside and out and especially in how she conducts herself. However, I have to say her true beauty comes from her faith of the Gospel. I have never seen anyone with such strong morals as my Mom. She has a testimony and it radiates from her with every room she enters.

Humor is a big part of our household, and Deb is a part of that. When she is on a roll, you know it. She can have you laughing till you're blue in the face. Ask her sisters, or her close friends. She's a blast to have in any social situation.

Wisdom. My Mother has lived on this earth many years. And with each year she has gained wisdom galore. She often tries to give me advice backing it up with "I am older and wiser!" Even though I may roll my eyes at her, she definitely is right. She knows... just about everything, and is willing to talk through anything with you.

My Mom still sees me as her little girl. Which is incredible. When my day is bad, she will hold my hand and help me through it no matter my age or stage of life. On the other hand, she has seen me grow, and has allowed me to have space to spread my own wings, all while watching, guarding me from a distance.

Travel! One of my favorite things to do with my Mom is to travel. She knows the idea of a good time and has never been afraid to show her children this amazing world we live in.

I could go on forever about all that my Mom is. The list is endless. My Mother is extremely special to me. She didn't give birth to me physically. But she gave birth to me spiritually, mentally, morally, and every other aspect of life. She has raised me from a baby into the person I am today. Even though we didn't start out as each other's flesh and blood, I have grown to become a part of her very self. And I'm proud of that fact.

My Mom is a neat lady. You should meet her.

"Everything I am and hope to be, I owe to my Mother."

I love you!!

Sincerely,
Your Little Girl
