As I think of <span style=\"font-weight:bold;\">Mother&#8217;s<\/span> Day, I can&#8217;t help but think of my own little ones&#8230; smile as I watch the whispering and excitement of especially the younger ones.  I am so blessed to be called <span style=\"font-weight:bold;\">MOM<\/span>&#8230; even when it is the most used word in our household.  It is my greatest calling and my most cherished role.<\/p>\n<p>I think of my own <span style=\"font-weight:bold;\">mom<\/span> and am grateful for all the sacrifices that she made to be living the life I now know.  I am glad for the traits that mirror her and make me a better person.  If it was not for my <span style=\"font-weight:bold;\">mom<\/span>, I would not be here!  Literally!<\/p>\n<p>I think of the other ladies that God placed in my life over the years that made such an impact as to who I am today.  There are teachers that cared, others that adopted me as their daughter away from home, others that nurtured and loved me in the most impactful  ways.<\/p>\n<p>There are the <span style=\"font-weight:bold;\">moms <\/span>that are gone.  Missed.  Greatly missed.  Their love leave a legacy&#8230; yet it still leaves a painful void.<\/p>\n<p>Then there are those that try to step in and just be&#8230; knowing there is no one that can fill that void.  Yet they are so brave&#8230; so giving, and are  so much that word means&#8230; <span style=\"font-weight:bold;\">Mother <\/span>to all.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight:bold;\">Mothers<\/span>&#8230; all I can think of when I say <span style=\"font-weight:bold;\">Mom<\/span> is  HERO.  A hero that is self-less, serving,  loves unconditionally, living for those that she can not help but breathe for&#8230; <\/p>\n<p>So, to all those <span style=\"font-weight:bold;\">MOMS<\/span>, who inspire me to be better in every thing, turn the other cheek, love harder, pray daily, not give up&#8230; <br \/>To all the <span style=\"font-weight:bold;\">MOMS<\/span> who love  those that are lost&#8230;<br \/>To all the<span style=\"font-weight:bold;\"> MOMS<\/span> that have had to love tough&#8230;<br \/>To all the <span style=\"font-weight:bold;\">MOMS<\/span> that love MY BABES when I am not there&#8230;<br \/>To all the <span style=\"font-weight:bold;\">MOMS <\/span>that just keep believing&#8230;<br \/>To all the <span style=\"font-weight:bold;\">MOMS<\/span> that just step up to the plate&#8230;<br \/>To all the<span style=\"font-weight:bold;\"> MOMS<\/span> that forget to be thanked&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>This day is for you!  <span style=\"font-weight:bold;\">Happy Mom&#8217;s Day<\/span> to the most incredible role that is played.  Thank you for being my inspiration!  Thank you for being that which God has called you to be!<\/p>\n<p>The world wouldn&#8217;t be the same without you being and doing all you do each day!<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight:bold;\">Happy Mother&#8217;s Day!<span style=\"font-style:italic;\"><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Mother&#8217;s Day Weekend&#8230; I have so many thoughts floating in my head as I think of this weekend.
