You Need a Mother Very, Very Badly!

Drek got me flowers for Mother's Day: 



And chocolate: 

and a homemade card. And he made me breakfast. Best husband ever.

At church today they gave me a king-size Symphony Bar. It was awesome.

Also at church the Relief Society president said something I wanted to share: She said that Eve was called "the mother of all living" before she ever bore a child. All women have this sacred calling from God, whether or not they have children in this life. God has given all women gifts of empathy, selflessness,  and a nurturing spirit. So even if a women isn't nurturing her children, she is nurturing God's children, and that makes her a mother.  So Happy Mother's Day to all women everywhere.

Here is a great article on Mothers. 

And Happy Mother's Day to my wonderful mother, grandmothers, and mother-in-law.

  1. WHAT?! Suck. I didn't get no chocolate at church. The men took over all classes for the women, but the Relief Society chorister gets no breaks. Sniffle.

  2. And I wish you had posted that quote earlier today. Tori was giving me grief because I wished her a happy mother's day. Why did I even bother? Strangle, strangle, sigh.
