My Mom...

I have the best mother anyone could ever wish for. I have had the blessing of spending a lot of time with her the past three months while I have been in Utah taking care of my dad. One day we were in the kitchen. I don't know what we were talking about but all the sudden she said, "I am strong, even though I don't lift weights like you, I am still very strong." The next thing I know she had challenged me to an arm wrestle. Yes, I arm wrestled my mom. She was right, she was very strong, but in the end, she wasn't strong enough. :-) I might have the edge on physical strength but she has the strength that really matters. One of the things I love most about her is that she is young at heart. She loves to have fun and I love to be with her every chance I get. She has taught me so many things. Some of the things I admire most about her is that she has a positive attitude, she doesn't complain. She never talks bad about others or gossips. She always tries to look at the good in every situation. My mom is one of the strongest people I know. She is truly incredible. I owe so much to my mother. She is an angel. I am eternally grateful she is my mom and couldn't begin to thank her for all that she is to me.

To say she is an amazing mom is in understatement! She's definitely Wonder Woman!

What a cute pic of you and mom. I did not know that she could arm wrestle. Good to know! Agree, she is very strong and a wondeful friend and mother. You said it best, "an angel".
