Happy Mother's Day!


Happy Mother's Day to everyone out there! And especially to my own mother. My mother truly is an amazing person, and I'm so lucky I got her for a Mom! Some fun things about my Mom that make her, well, just plain awesome:

She looks for the good in all people.
She is not afraid to get in there and help people, even if it means feeling uncomfortable.
I love her phrase, "done is better than perfect!"
She loves to have fun, and is constantly finding new ways to do it, (i.e. surfing, rock climbing, hiking, etc...)
She is good at giving compliments-TL's for all!
She is a wonderful Mother-in-Law to my husband.
She makes all of us kids feel like we're the favorite (because aren't we all?)
She is an amazing Grandma (book clubs, cousin camp, here we come!)
She is a cancer survivor!!! Yea!!!!
She has a strong testimony of the gospel, and I constantly look to her for strength and faith.
She is the best, and I'm glad I have her as an example and inspiration to raise my own children

I love you, Momma! I wish I could be with you today!!

Happy Belated "first" Mother's Day Andria....I am down in Austin now visiting Dustin & Chelsea. Had my check-up in Seattle last Friday. Woody was here as well until today and headed to Nashville tonight to see James Taylor. I think you will be just a great a mom as your mom is...! You have had a wonderful example. I want to meet her someday....

Hugs to Amelia, you and (oh yeah....Matty too...!)

Love,
Kathy & Woody
