I had a fascinating week and Mother`s Day was awesome! I mean, not yet for me…but I`m happy for my Mom and I`m happy for her life and how God has used her in the lives of people around her—and that includes me.

 

My Mom is really a gracious lady…and it`s unbelievably cute and amazing how she turns from a caring, loving mother into a strict, scary disciplinarian when the opportunity requires her to. How can you expect  a Mom to be always gentle and quiet raising up a noisy, controlling kid like me. She must`ve have had a hard time… I guess, even now.

 

 

So i`m really thankful to the Lord for my Mom. I could say all the beautiful words but that would never be enough to describe her. Beautiful. Lovely. Sweet. Caring. Kind. Always concerned about me. Always loving and forgiving towards this stubborn child.

 

 

I could never have a better Mom.

Day 7

 

Three minutes to go and

it`s Mother`s Day! ;)

 

I`m just done with the cards for the surprise we`re preparing for the Moms in church tomorrow. My Mom happened to see what I was making so it wouldn`t be much of a surprise to her anymore. I just picked the best card for her so she at least it would be a little more special.

 

We made handmade pop-up cards from Martha Stewart. It was so fun to do, but I made a lot so it wasn`t really that easy. But if you`re just gonna make one for your Mom, it`s definitely fun and worth spending your time on.
