My 3 Moms.

I am a day behind with my sentiments but I will post them nonetheless.

I have 3 moms. My mom Judy, and my 2 mothers-in-law, Jackie and Denise.

It seems that only one day a year is not sufficient to buy cards, gifts, or express true feelings for our mothers since they give of themselves every day for us. I feel very blessed that I have these 3 unique and gracious women in my life and in the lives of my children.

Here are just some of the many, many things I have learned about being a wife and mother from "my 3 moms"

• Finding joy and purpose in being a stay-at-home mom, and the importance of not making myself and our family so busy that we do not have time to just be together.
• Sacrificing for the sake of our children. Be it time, $$, or sleep :)
  
• Being your husband's ultimate support in times of trial and in times of ease.
  
• Not to always open my big mouth with my opinions, just listen.
  
• Start and finish the laundry on the same day. ( I admittedly suck at this one)
• Try to look nice for your husband when he comes home. (i'm having visions of my mom running to the bathroom to curl her hair before dad returned from work)
  

The list could go on and on. I love and appreciate my mothers so much. They are a source of encouragement and inspiration that I only hope to pass on someday to my own children.

Happy Mother's Day!
