Moms are awesome! Nobody has spent more time or is more
understanding, kind and gentle or puts life into perspective for us than our
moms. Your job is immense and yet you seem to pull if off without a sweat. You
wear so many hats throughout our lives: nurturer, nurse, chef, chauffer,
storyteller, friend, counselor, cheerleader, CEO, CFO, COO (and whatever other
initials you can come up with), defendant, comforter, confidant, banker,
manager, cuddler, fixer of broken hearts…do I need to go on? The list is endless.
Now, for all us kids out there who still have our mothers
let me challenge us to pick three to five characteristics of our moms that have
the most meaning, and when we are writing her a Mother’s Day card tell her why
these characteristics mean so much to you about her. This is going to take some
thinking, and it means that we just can’t sign the card. I want all of us to
put some genuine effort into communicating to our moms just how much they mean
to us. Keep in mind that they have spent countless hours investing themselves
into our lives. We are who we are because of the influence of these women.
Do your mom a huge favor this week and take her to church
and then lunch. I believe it would mean so much to her to have you sitting
beside her on this special day. I know Barb loves these days when she is able
to sit in church with our four; it is a special day out of the year that she
knows they’ve made a special effort to worship with mom.
Happy Mother’s Day!
