Now I understand this post is almost a week late since my lovely Mother’s birthday was the 11th but better late then never…right!
Anyahoo, it was my Mom’s birthday last Wednesday and it was a great day. We helped Rachel with the kiddos and then we all went and saw “This is It” and I have to say it was really good. I have never been a huge Michael Jackson fan but after seeing this movie, I would have paid good money to see him in concert. He really was a musical genius and just seemed really down to earth and humble. Moving on…we then went to Red Lobster for dinner and had cake and ice cream back at the house.
I love my Mom for so many reasons. And I am who I am today because of her. But here are a few of the reasons I love my Mother:
1. She loves the Gospel and has a strong testimony. She has always been the rock in our home and always fulfills her church callings to the best of her ability.
2. She has the most amazing work ethic. If you want something done…you call Carol Parker.
3. She loves and supports us kids and would do anything for us.
4. She believes in us and wants the best for us. She has always been pro-education and was my #1 fan through school. One time I called her when I was up at school crying and telling her that I was dropping out and coming home and she said, “No you are not. There is a light at the end of the tunnel.” And well…I did graduate from college.
5. She is a great listener.
6. She has a great sense of humor.
7. She can pretty much do anything. It is pretty amazing actually.
8. Nothing like Mom’s cooking
9. She is so good about birthdays and holidays and making things just really special for us kids.
10. She has sacrificed her whole life for us.
Sure love you Mom!! Happy Birthday!!
