Happy Mother's Day to all mothers that read my blog. But because she is my mother I want to do something extra special for her.
My mom has been a mother for almost 26 years so I am going to tell everyone 26 things that my mom does fantastically of being a mother. In no particular order.
26- She puts her children before she puts her self
25- she has always made sure that my sister and I were taken care of all the way around
24- No matter the price she made sure that we were happy at school so that we would like to go
23- She has taught my sister to be an excellent mother, and I am sure one day I will too
22- She has always tried to give Britteny and I want we wanted----we have been spoiled---but she knew when to say no.
21- She is a wonderful grandmother just like she was a mother
20- She let us children know that she is not always perfect so we don't have to be perfect
19- Both her and I have a love of photos
18- Both her and I have a love of family
17- She never took us away from our father's family after he died
16- She let us choose certain things for ourselves
15- She let us know that life can be hard but with hard work and the Lord we can make it through anything
14- She would push me to do anything even if I would say I did not want to
13- Bouncing or 14 she knew that we were just saying that we did not want to do something just because it was hard...but we really wanted to
12- She never let us give up on our goals
11- She was always there for us when we finished our goal- to say she was proud of us
10- She was our shoulder to cry on when we needed it
9- There has never been a time where I have not felt her love
8- When we would get too angry at life she knew how to get us to wake up---one time it was I was put in a cold bath with bubbles
7- She taught us to forgive and forget as much as possible
6- She taught us that if we needed a friend we had to be one first
5- She let us pick what extra things we wanted to do in life---Brittney cheer and I was dance and choir
4- She was not afraid to tell us no
3- She knew what was important and things are not them
2- She has been to the doctor for each of us more times than either my sister or I could count
