Parting Shots: Mom

Over this past month, I have spent a great deal of time with my mom. Observing her, I would characterize Mom as a willing, tireless, and cheerful servant, available to support us in whatever way we need. From dawn til dusk for the past thirty days, she has cheerfully, willingly, and gladly been available to love us in countless ways.

I chose these shots because I think they portray Mom's servant's heart, cheerful attitude, and fortitude as she interacted with us.





(She's strong, physically, seen here with 20 pound Jack... but she's got fortitude, too: Mom GAVE ERIK AND ME A NIGHT AWAY, friends! Three babies and some help from two staff girls. Wow. What could be more valuable to this couple than TIME ALONE?! Thanks again, Mom!)

Like I said, dawn til dusk availablity ... and cheerful about it



We love you and miss you, GrandMar!
