For My Mother

Since I was gone for most of Mother's Day, I didn't get a chance to post about my favorite woman.  So, since Sunday was her birthday, I thought this would be another great opportunity to give her a shout out!  We've had lots of fun these last couple of days celebrating her...umm...25 glorious years! ;0) We had a bbq on Sunday that was delicious...complete with presents and a fruit tart instead of cake.  Then, last night we went bowling and stuffed our faces with pizza.  Good times!

I know you all think your mom is the best there is...but I'm very sorry to say that, while yours may be a close second, mine tops them all!  First of all, there is nothing this little lady can't do.  I swear she's Superwoman!  Whenever there's a project to be done, whether it be a party, Girls Camp, missionary packages, weddings, or even just cheering someone up, she goes all out and anything below 110% is unacceptable.  Her talents seriously never cease to amaze me, and yet, she's so humble she refuses to believe she has any.  She is beyond creative and can figure anything out....and I mean anything!  Secondly, I'm pretty sure I've never met someone so hilarious.  She has the ability to make anyone laugh their faces off!  She makes everyone feel comfortable and it's just so fun to be around her.  My mama has always been such a good example of how to live the gospel, how to be honest, how to care about and love others until you feel like you'll burst, and best of all....she gets me.  I'm kind of a quirky, nerdy girl at heart, but my mom always knows what I'm talking about & she always finds me hilarious...even when everyone else is staring at me blankly.  She's always been able to encourage me and make me feel good about myself, even during my lowest lows.  She has been right by my side with overwhelming support during all of the trials and heartbreaks in my life, and even when I feel like everyone else has let me down and life doesn't make any sense, she's always there to turn to and help me keep moving forward.  Anything I've learned to do well I've learned from her.  She's my BFF and I couldn't imagine life without my sweet, warm-hearted Momsie!  Happy Birthday/Late Mother's Day Mama Robyn!!! I love you!!!
