Happy Mother's Day

She Is.....

She is the woman who always shines in the face of sadness.

She always holds me when I am feeling down.
She is the one who stayed up so many nights worrying about when I would be home.
But loved me and held me through it all.
She is the woman I run to with all of life's questions.
She IS the strength and the grace that holds our family together.
She is a nurse and a mother.
She is a friend and sister.
She is a woman who walks in this world with sunbeams all around her.
She is a grandmother who KNOWS what a grandmother would do..spoil em rotten is her motto)
She is a wife who stands by her love and shows us what commitment is.
She encourages all of her family and NEVER puts us down.
She was put on this earth for a very special reason by God.....
To be my Mom......
and I could not have dreamed of anyone more perfect......
She is my guide and my hero.
She is my MOM!
I know you will read this today ;) These are only words and they can never show you how much I love you...my heart is too full to ever be expressed.
I love you Mom.
xxoo, Shelly

I am my Mother's daughter

I got a call today that my Mom is going to have to have heart surgery. Not the best news. But I am my mother's daughter. Which means, I will pack my bags, keep a positive outlook, put my big girl panties on and take a road trip. My Mom is a very strong woman. When ever there is something of concern going on...this is what she does. I have learned well. And I tell ya what...It works. By the time I get there, I will be in full mommy mode and all will be right with the world.

So here is one that was painted for my mom today. An apple or two for her heart and a strand of pearls for her beauty and grace.

I love you Mom! XXOO

on my way>>>>>>>

Enjoy!
