God's Love Never Ceases...

I was driving the other day and heard this song for the first time. The lyrics fit my Mothers stories of cancer to a 'T', the age, number of kids, the husband.. etc... This song touched me so much. It reminded me of how much I love my Mother and how grateful I was that I was old enough to help her through it and how grateful I am that she is still here with me. She listens to me and is happy with me and sad with me. She bends over backwards to help me with anything I need. She is a wonderful example of hard work and unwavering faith (if it ever wavered she never let it show). 


She worked full time through her cancer and tried her absolute hardest to be there for my 2 sisters and I. I remember her scheduling her chemo around her days off with work so she could have the weekend to be super sick so she could go back to work being really sick. I remember her coming home after working each day and sitting in her recliner often times crying, because she was trying so hard and it was wearing her to the bone. We had SO many people, SO very many people come and help us. Several people flew in from all over the states to come help, people flooded in from everywhere. Why you ask, because of how amazing my Mother is. She has touched the lives of hundreds of people and will continue as she fights her way through what at times seems like never ending trails.


Dear Mom,


I want to let you know how very much I love you and how grateful I am to be your daughter. You have been there for me when I have made the most insane decisions with the craziest consequences (breaking both of my arms). I just want you to know that I am truly honored to be your daughter. Thank you for your incredible example of faith and strength and COURAGE! I want you to know that no matter the future trials that will come in your life I will always love you through it all and be there for you. Thank you for raising me in the gospel and teaching me all that I needed and what I will continue to need in my life. Thank you for bending over backwards to help me and encourage me through my experiences  in life. I love you mom! If I can be even half the Mother you are I know I will be doing GREAT! I love you so much!


Love your baby girl.
