Happy Mother's Day.

Funny story, one year when I was a young teenager, my mom was talking in sacrament meeting. She told the congregation how she hated mother's day. All I could think of was it was because of us and I was soooo embarrased. Later on I found out what she really meant was she didn't feel like she was the perfect mom. No one is perfect, but those who come closest are moms!

We have great moms in our lives. How can you measure the joys, the love, all the effects of a good mother? Abraham Lincoln said, "All that I am, or hope to be, I owe to my angel mother". Last night I went in to check on Zach as he was sleeping. So sweet and innocent. I got the feeling that I needed to teach him the gospel of Christ. If I didn't, who would? He is learning in his primary class at church, for which I am very grateful. Yesterday in the car, I heard him talking like his little primary class, asking and answering questions (sort of). It was cute.

Salute to mother's everywhere! Our work is of the utmost importance and eternal effects. We love you mom's Christie and Sue!
