THANKS MOM!!!


A THANKS to MY Mom:

I can't expect for a handful of words to relay the feelings I have toward you, but I hope to make you feel special on this Mother's Day. You became a mom at an early age, and poured everything you had into Bev and me from the start. I have never doubted for one instance the love you have for us.

You have enriched our lives in so many ways. "Fantastic Fridays", "Terrific Tuesdays" and every little adventure along the way were just the beginning. You were there to lead me to Christ when I was a little girl, and my eternity will never be the same.

You taught us how to be strong women and stand up for what we believe in. Sometimes I'm sure I made you regret that move :)

I know this day is hard on you and makes you miss Nannie more and more each year. We all have a part of her inside of us and will carry her love with us always.

When I was growing up I never had that one constant dream of becoming a..doctor...teacher...fighter pilot...lifeguard :) I always knew I wanted to be a MOM. Just like you. I wanted to raise my kids myself and be a part of their lives. I know I only have 2.5 years experience and a lifetime of lessons to learn, but it truly is the best thing I've ever done. I can appreciate so many more things now that I am a mom myself.
I know that I would not be half the mom I am without you, your guidance, and your encouragement. These boys LOVE their Grammy CC and they are seeing the wonderful gift our family has been given to have you in our lives. We love you VERY much and hope you always know how special you are to us.

Happy Mother's Day!
Love, Tamara

It almost feels wrong to leave a comment when I'm "speechless!" Your heartfelt words mean everything to me and a simple "Thank you" doesn't seem quite enough. I love you too, and always have... Being a Mom is the best and you are doing a wonderful job with Joss and Emit - know that I'm proud of you :0) Always make time to build your relationship with God and Dallas, for they are the foundation to help you always be your best...

Many thanks and love always, Mom
