Mothers Day 2011

"You are the only one who will ever know the strength of my love for you. After all, you're the only one who knows what my heart sounds like from the inside."

happy mothers day! what a gift and a privilege to be a mom. i wrote this blessing to read in church this morning. i cried the whole time.

For the stay at home mom-
May you be blessed today with great patience and an even greater influence. may you not become unsettled in your place but gladly take a paycheck that is cashed in by love.

for the single mom who never planned on doing this alone-
may you be consistently strengthened by god and hear him singing
over you. your courage and strength make you super mom.

for the working mom-
may you be blessed with energy, validation and hope. be strong in knowing the example of hard work and dedication will be a life lesson your children carry forever.


for every mom-
may your homes and hearts be filled with laughter joy and deep satisfaction. may you be blessed and honored not just today but everyday.
we recognize the sacrifices you make to give your child everything they could possibly want in this world.
may your sense of nurturing grow as you continue to care and give unselfishly to your children.
your encouragement, strength, and generosity will be the rock children stand on in hard times.
your prayers and faith have made a godly heritage that will increase with each generation, declaring the goodness of our god.
may you always believe in yourself and the calling god has given you
you are making the world a better place because you are filling it with love only a mom can give.


your children will rise up and call you blessed and today we call YOU blessed!
