My Mom

Happy Mother's Day! I wanted to write about my mom and how much she means to me. Becoming a mother has shown me that the love you have for your child is indescribable. I love Giana with my whole heart and would give my life for her. Understanding and feeling this love for my daughter helps me understand how deep my own mother's love is for me and my sister. She has shown unconditional love to us both. Regardless of all my/our faults, she loves us. My mom is unselfish. She gives generously of her time, energy, talents, and gifts to make our family and friends grow and flourish. Even today, we were shopping and she had to pick up this adorable scarf for my sister because she knew she would just love it! My mom thinks of others all the time. She puts other's needs and wants above her own. My mom is patient and kind. There were many times I know I drove her crazy; but she was always there to patiently guide and help me make the right choices. My mom is beautiful inside and out. I admire her strength and drive she has for life. Today, I celebrate my mother. Mom, I love you and am thankful that God gave me you as my mother.

Love is patient; love is kind. Love is not jealous; is not proud; is not conceited; does not act foolishly; is not selfish; is not easily provoked to anger; keeps no record of wrongs; takes no pleasure in unrighteousness, but rejoices in the truth; love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, and endures all things. ~I Corinthians 13:4-7
