My Thoughts on Mothers Day

There's nothing I'd rather be than a mother. Simply put, it's the most fulfilling, most challenging, most educational mission of my life!

Heaven knows I'm open about the challenges of mothering. Heaven knows I am far from the perfect mother. But Heaven also is behind me on this journey. Heaven also sent me to a loving and wonderful mother, who gave me a great example on how to mother. I find myself saying, "I hope my kids love me as much as I love my mom." To know her is to love her.

I'm thankful for all the mothers in my life and for the men in my life who honor all women.
My greatest hope is that my children will grow up knowing that their mother loved and sacrificed for them because they are worth it in every way!
