If there is one thing that I have learned for myself recently from helping take care of my niece is that mother hood is sooo hard!! It's amazing to me how demanding these little creatures are, holy cow it's exhausting. Which is why I must do a shout out to my mama on mothers day.
My mom is one who always puts family first, always thinking of her kids first before herself. She is non-stop moving all day long making sure all our needs our met and that we're all taken care of and not only that but happy as well before ever thinking of her own needs, even though the list for herself is long and just as demanding. She then extends on outside our family to care for everyone in the ward, neighbors, and extended family. I appreciate it mom.
Mom sets an example for me not only with her selflessness, but with her love of the gospel and how she lives her life. She lives her life right, as well as gives a 100% to whatever calling she receives. She also supports my dad in whatever calling he receives, standing by his side no matter what.
She's my #1 fan, always pushing me to do what I want in life and to follow my dreams. For example: If it wasn't for my mom I would have given up on nursing years ago after the first day of my CNA class, but she pushed me to continue and I will be forever grateful. Along with being my number one fan she puts up with a lot of whining, venting, and complaining from me on everything in life: roommates, school, friends, relationship status, etc.. you name it she's heard an ear full on it and always listens without complaint. thank you mom, because of you we are not afraid of hard : )
My mom is great in many more ways but what I'm basically trying to say is that I love you mom! and that you have made me who I am today, I wouldn't be here without ya and that I'll forever need you more than you know. Thanks for always being there and loving me no matter what. I appreciate everything a lot more than I'm sure is voiced. Thank you for the sacrifices you make on a daily basis, Love you mom.

Mother's day now is not only about my mom but I have my sister as well I need to wish a happy mother's day to.
Being an aunt is something I've always wanted and because my sister chose to be a mom I now have the blessing of Keznee in my life, and I love my sister for that sacrifice she has made (because I now have the cutest niece ever!)
My sister is an amazing mom as well. I've watched her on multiple occasions and I admire the patience, and love she has for Kezy. As well as the time she puts in to being her mommy. With Jake's current situation in the army I admire Ash as well for her bravery, Jake's a great dad but with him being gone off and on the past couple months (and soon leaving for the year) my sister has had to do a lot by herself and on her own-and she's done a great job. I of course don't know how she does it because I would just throw my hands up and quit but even though I'm sure she feels like doing that she keeps going and still with a smile on her face.
I love you Ash, thanks for giving me another example to follow for when I become a mom one day and for giving me the opportunity to be an auntie, and the favorite one at that : )
Happy mother's day to two great mom's, love you both. I can only hope that one day I'm as great of a mom as you. Because heaven knows without ya this is what motherhood would contain for me....
