Tomorrow, July 21, is our precious mother's birthday! Twelve people love you immensely and treasure you greatly! All of us can't get enough of you or take our eyes off you! :)
A stay-at-home wife, mother, and homeschooling teacher...my mama decided against a "career life" to rear and nurture her children in the LORD. After accomplishing that feat, being the intelligent woman that she is, my mother then returned to college and acquired her Bachelors in Math Education.
No matter how far away we live from our mother, she always stays endearingly close to all her children and grandchildren. We still rely on her wisdom, guidance, and affection.
I love you, Mama. There has never been or is or ever will be another mother as perfectly marvelous as YOU!
Happy Birthday, Mama!

Candace,how kind of you to take the time to put together such a special present,and how much your words mean to me. I have tears of joy. I loved the career of "keeper of the home" that the Lord had for me; and to have had the privilege of staying home with my four precious darlings are memories I treasure everyday. And we all had the joy everyday of looking forward to our sweet husband and father coming home from work. We certainly had a wonderful life together,didn't we? Now all of us are living here-and-there, but there is not a day that I regret---just the opposite--- but rejoice and thank the Lord for my husband, children,grandchildren and sons-in-law(and Eric our soon to be and much loved new addition);and that I had the privilege of being with Katie, Candace, Caleb and Kristin everyday,all day when you all were growing up.
Happy birthday, Grandmother! I am going to call you tomorrow, and we will have a nice long talk.
Well, I can't add anything to Candace's great tribute, only to agree whole-heartedly. You are a very special lady, Mama. I can only repeat what I have said in the past, that I can only hope I allow God to help me be as great mother as you are.
Yes there isn't much left to say after that wonderful post you put, Candace. I hope you have a fantastically, wonderful birthday, Mama!! I know Daddy will have something good for you up his sleeve and I know your phone will be ringing off the hook today with birthday calls. I sure wish I was there to give you a big hug and kiss, but it won't be long now! I LOVE YOU!!
