MOM!

The song that should be playing on my playlist while you read this was sung on American Idol this week. I made Nolan rewind it like 3 times. For some reason it just touched me. It has had me thinking the last few days about moms. I'll start with thoughts of my mom.....

I got lucky have the most amazing mother. I have been thinking about her a lot the last month or so with mothers day and May 6 marked 10 years since she passed away. I think the older I get the more I appreciate my mother. I remember watching her serve so many people. She had figured out what Charity really is and showed me what it is. I find myself caring for people so much and just wanting them to be happy. I tend to put them before myself a lot. I know that is from my mom. She taught me how to truly love someone and see them the way christ would. Even being gone she influences me each and everyday and I am so grateful for that! I am so thankful to the lord for sending me to my mother! I could not have asked to be sent to a better family!!
I found this picture on my computer today! I thought it was adorable! I can't even put into words how thankful I am for my mother in law. Not only am i thankful that she raised such a great son for me to marry but I am thankful for what she does for me everyday. I have never met someone who is so in-tune with the spirit. I hope to learn that from her. I thank the lord everyday for allowing me to be married into the Hatch family. I feel like I am truly one of her daughters!

I have felt so blessed lately. I feel like the lord really knows me and my needs. He knew exactly who my mom should be and who my mother in law should be. I am so thankful for their examples to me and hope to someday be like both of them! Thank you Moms for everything you do! LOVE YOU!
