happy mother's day. most all the people around me are calling their moms or celebrating this day with them. since i can't do either, i decided a blog post to celebrate you would be my mothers day tribute. just wanted to say thank you for bringing me into the world. and for being an amazing mother and being a wonderful example of how a mother should be. you've shaped my life and taught me well. i wish i had more time and opportunities to learn from you, to ask you questions i have. of course i do have dad and the other siblings who i've been able to go to and learn from. they've been really great but let's be honest, they aren't you. thank you for all your sacrifices, your kind and encouraging words, your simple acts of love, your cooking and baking skills that you've passed on, the knowledge that you've shared, and your love for Heavenly Father and the gospel that you demonstrated in all walks of your life. there's a whole lot more i could say but i don't want to bore the public world who may be reading this... anyway, today is a day to think about and honor mothers. well, i think about you daily and i miss you. happy mothers day!
God be with you till we meet again. i love you!love, me
