Thanks to everyone who shared a story about their mom this week. Here's one more story of a mom that knows what it means to love...
My mom is my hero. She is 70 years old and she is more alive than some 15 yr olds! My mom brought me and my sisters to Canada more than 36 years ago. My dad was already here so she had to travel with her 4 young daughters to a new country. She began to work almost right away to supplement our dad's income. But before she left each morning at 6am to go to work, she cooked our lunch! When she got home after work, without missing a beat, she began to cook our dinner. My mom was able to raise us in the fear of the Lord even though she was alone in Canada. She had left her mother, sisters, brothers back home. Thanks be to God and thanks be to our mother, we are all professionals with great jobs! Our mother taught us to be strong and never to give up. She is my hero and I thank God for her. Today, she is the life of any party! Praise be to God!
Thanks for sharing Norma!
My parents got divorced when I was ten. I have never had a good relationship with my birth mom, but there was a lady in my church who took me under her wing and has helped me through all the years. She has become like my spiritual "mom". She has been there through it all - helped me get on my feet time and time again. She is truly a woman of God and I am blessed to have her in my life. She has shown me that there are caring moms out there, and shown me how I can be one myself one day.

I am a very lucky person. You see, I honor two people every year on Mother's Day. I remember them both by sending them cards and notes in gratitude for all they have helped me become.
I was born and raised on a farm where my mother taught me many things. She showed me how to plant a garden and nurture baby chicks. She taught me how to do laundry and cook meals. She modeled a calmness in the midst of chaos which could be challenging in a family of nine. She was always dedicated to her vocation as mother. Our personalities were not alike, but I always respected our differences. Since my father passed away two years ago, our relationship has grown closer. The loss of my father was very difficult for me. Since his passing, I see a quiet spirit within my mother that I have never seen before, and this helps bring comfort on our journey together.
