Happy Birthday! You have been Mother of the Year, every year in my book! Mainly because you have believed in me! I love you! I was thinking about your example over the years! Each time I call you, you seem to have some positive thing to say, and often times are giving compliments! "If only I could be like you"...an amazing women to aspire to! Throughout the years you have remembered my children's birthdays and sent each of us in the family a card and money! You helped me with my homework especially all the grammar and english papers. It is really something to brag about that you not only had 10 children (plus some miscarriages), but helped each of us 10 children make it to the temple! What a women of faith! If ever we are praying for something- we will call mom because mom's prayers are answered! You helped us know that our problems are important to Heavenly Father and he wants us to succeed just as much as you do! You helped us to eat healthy.. growing a garden, canning and using food storage. How in the world did you always have the floor swept and mopped? Amid all the yummy breakfast shakes you'd send us out the door with, I mainly remember prayers and scriptures, which you helped instill in us as the most important things to make sure we do each day. Growing up I often recall hearing people call you one of the kindest, most caring people in the neighborhood- and it's true! I often have memories of you calling neighbors, taking goodies around Christmas, always, always doing Visiting Teaching! Your love of the Temple is shown in how much you desire to go as you go through this difficult time in your life. Thank you for your example and love! I hope you have a Happy Birthday!
Love,
Shawndra
