Wow! Well this was a no brainer!! I admire my Mom! She is always loving, you always know where you stand with her, she isn't afraid to say the hard things that need to be said, she loves and hurts for us, she would give it all up for us, and most important she is in love with my children!!
Growing up I had it all! I had 2 parents that had beat all odds. They were married when she was 16 and he was 18 and they are still married. They have shown me what a marriage is. It isn't a perfect picture it is a daily struggle that gladly wake up to every day!! I lived in a house that had rules!!!! Very clear rules (that I liked breaking) and very clear punishments that were handed out because of love. I also lived in a house where church was a way of life not an option. Our home wasn't always laughter and hugs but we had enough that made memories!!
My mom has taught me how to love, how much I would hurt when my children hurt, and how to love the Lord! My mom can turn the dullest moment into a fun memory!! That is the quality I want to live out today! One example of this would be from when I was younger and I was smarting off about who knows what and she threw an egg at me!!! We had an egg fight and then I had to clean it all up!!! I can still hear us laughing and carrying on!! I know at her work she does the same thing!!! (throws food)
