Happy Mother's Day Mom!

Top Ten Reasons My Mom is Wonderful

10. She puts up with my dad and has for over 30+ years : P
9. She is a very generous person. Even at the times when it seemed we had nothing to share, she found a way.
8. She went back to college after a long spell and finished her degree. I get my smarts from her.
7. She has a beautiful smile and shares it often. We have the same smile.
6. Her lists for Christmas are often short and filled with things she knows we can afford : )
5. She is brave in a lot of different ways. Who else could have face down a tire iron and imaginary lions... long story
4. She loves to read and put up with my long spell of Harlequin romance checkouts.
3. She has a lot of faith and acts on it. She is not a sidelines Christian.
2. She has a wonderful sense of humor. Including a notepad that says "Now I know why rodents eat their young..."
1. Because she is and I love her.

Eve,
What a surprise when I read this entry. And I thought you were not listening.
I remember a card from years ago, inside was the saying - "My compliments to your Maker." That is still true-He gets the praise.
I love you,
Mom
