I love my Mom...


I know everyone tends to think they have the best Mom but...I'm sure mine is.


I love that when Tyler & I were engaged she learned how to text message and at midnight she would send me a scriptural text message.

I love that she just called me and said "I want to get a Wii so what do I buy? and why aren't they at Costco?"  Just because she thought it would be fun to have a Wii at her house so the family could play when we are all together.

I love that she's come to see me 4 times in the 9 months since we moved...and she wants to come again soon.

I love that she always made holidays such a big deal...decorating, preparing, & celebrating. 

I could go on and on but...I'll stop, because she's not going to like this post very much.

Just in case you don't already know Mom...I LOVE YOU!

What you wrote is very moving Nat and I want to say too that your mom is a wonderful loving person. She does everything to make people feel comfortable and Jacques and I think of her evry single day. What a great human being she is! She is an example to follow. She never ever complains, she is radiant with love and her kind smile is so expressive! I will always remember how she helped me when I was at your house and visiting places. I had the feeling of having found a second mom! It's nice to put her on your blog and this photo of you both is so beautiful! You do look like her so much! All our love to both! And to the rest of the family too, of course.

You do have an AWESOME mom. I have always loved her. Maybe not the BEST mom, but a close second :)

i saw your mom today at the farmers market & asked her if she had gotten on your blog lately. when i was telling her about what you wrote, we were both teary eyed by the end. she loves you soooo much too!
