to know her is to love her...

If you know me, you may be blessed enough to know my mom. Today was my mom's birthday and I have over and over, today especially, recognized how lucky I am to have her. I do not think there is anyone who knows my mom that would disagree with me in saying my mom is simply amazing. She is one of those people that seems to be good at everything she does. She is a wonderful wife, the perfect mom, and a wonderful friend. She has faith that could move a mountain and her love for her Savior is very evident in the way she lives her life. She is constantly thinking of what she can do for those around her. She has a day every week that is devoted to one of her daughters, daughter-in-laws, or mom. She will do whatever it is that they want her to do...she will clean your house, watch your kids, take ya to lunch, you name it-- she does it. This is just a small example of the kind of person my mom is. Who else do you know that does a cartwheel everyday just to make sure they never forget how?! My mom is that lady...you know the one with the cute little figure, great coordination, always dressed in perfect fashion, her house always seems to be clean and organized, and she somehow seems to always be on top of things.. The thing is, it isn't just a facade, she really is just that good. I feel blessed to be her daughter and love her dearly. Happy Birthday Mom.
