Mom, Get Well Please ~

Dear Mom.


I woke up this morning and felt like this is all some bad dream. I think back to the day the doctor told you what she found during surgery, and how strong and positive you are. You amaze me mom, and I want you to know how proud of you that I am. My whole family is ~ we all think you are the best person we know, and have ever known. The example you set in the way you have lived your life is something we are all blessed to witness. Pleading with God about this in my prayers, I had to ask why after all you have had to deal with in life, does this have to happen. It is then that He gently reminds me that my mom has been blessed more than most…with the important things in this life, things like your amazing quality for honesty, your gentleness, kindness, compassion for others, forgiveness, peace, great love of Jesus, being a wonderful caring mom, faithfully loving your husband when he was not easy to love, you have always been content with the simple things in life, a wonderful grandma you are, your grandchildren adore you, as do your kids, you are a great friend to many, you love old people and animals…. the list goes on and on. Looking at this, you have been incredibly blessed. So mom, I know you will keep your chin up and get through this. Just had to let you know how thankful I am that you are my mom. COuldn’t have picked a better one! Wishing I was going to be there when you see the doctor at the U of MN, but we will be there when you have surgery ok!



You are in our prayers ~and we send lots of hugs!

We love you,

Steph , Toby and the fam
