How do we even begin to describe how you have impacted us, especially in only one paragraph?  Your encouragement, nurturing and prayers have helped to form the women that we are today.  You are a great example of a Godly woman to both of us.  You don’t just instruct us spiritually, but you live it. We thank God every day for a mother that wants only the best for your children.  We were so lucky to have you at home with us growing up.  You used your talents to home school us, and for that we will forever be grateful. Having you at home and knowing that you were there anytime that we needed to talk was a blessing that we too often took for granted.  You often gave up your needs and desires to make sure that we felt loved and cared for.  With dad, you provided everything we could have needed or wanted.  Thank you, Mom, for being there, for your sense of humor, for your support and most of all for your love.   We love you!
