my mother taught me

My mother taught me...

To make the holidays special.




To be a great cook and baker.



To love music and play the piano well enough to accompany my children.




To take trips near and far.







To go to my children's music and sporting events.



To love the Gospel.

Candy card for Nathan's baptism

To go to church every week and wear our best.




To give hugs.






To read books.




To do hard things (like having lots of children).



To have snowball fights (although I still don't do that).



To love and serve.



To be my best self!



Thanks for amazing example of mothering, Mom. You set the bar rather high. Thanks for all these lessons and the ones you continue to teach me every day. Love you so much!
