I hope to live this day doing the best I can to be a woman of God.
(The other choice of living a guilt-racked day never sounds fun... I'll try this instead.)
I thank all the wonderful women in my life who have been examples to me: my own mom, stepmother, mother-in-law, sisters, sisters-in-law, aunts, cousins, grandmothers and friends... and let me not forget my children who have enrolled me in classes ranging from Parenting 101 to Parenting 590!
You have all inspired, uplifted, and helped me become a better "me".
I thank you and love you all!
"Women of God can never be like women of the world.
The world has enough women who are tough; we need women who are tender.
There are enough women who are coarse; we need women who are kind.
There are enough women who are rude; we need women who are refined.
We have enough women of fame and fortune; we need more women of faith.
We have enough greed; we need more goodness.
We have enough vanity; we need more virtue.
We have enough popularity; we need more purity."

While we were with Jonas receiving his patriarchal blessing

(plus also, that was an amazing experience),
the other kids made a cute Mother's Day slideshow...

Happy Mother's Day, Dresden! I feel like you are truly a woman of god. I loved the quote you posted. I admire you and all that you do. You have raised the bar for all of us. Couldn't love you more.
Happy Mother's Day, dear daughter! You thank me, and I thank you in return for making me a better "me!"
I love you forever and ever!
I love that quote too.
You are such a great example to me, you inspire me to be a better mom. I hope you had a wonderful Mother's Day :)
The update was great. Someone is becoming so advanced with their camera and computer skills. Nicely done!
