I Love My Mom Because...

She was courageous. She was positive. She showed us everyday how much she loved my dad and us kids. She had a good sense of humor right up to the end. She was calm and level-headed. She was smart and confident. She was pretty in a non-fussy sort of way. She was a great teacher. She had gorgeous eyes and hands. She loved to be with her family. She always saw the best in me. She adored, truly adored Parker. She was the best grandma ever. She was faithful. She had a quiet strength that I didn't know I depended on so much until she was gone. She lived a life of service. I knew she loved me without a doubt. She still comes around when I sing to let me know how proud of me she is. I always want to make her proud. She'd drop everything to help me when I needed her. She still does. She's my mother for always. Happy Mother's Day, Mom.
