Challenge "M"

There is only one "M" that I love, but it is THREE fold. 

I love my Mother.  She was the greatest example and teacher a child could ever ask for.  She had so much love for her children that none of us felt slighted.  I always knew she loved me no matter what I did.  She was taken from me early and one of the results was missing  the years of being not just her daughter but her friend and helper.  I would give anything to be able to have that time with her, but I can't go there.  "What if" is not an option.

I love BEING a mother.  It is so fulfilling and has taught me so much about my Heavenly Father and his love for me.  It has given me 5 people who make me proud every day.  What joy they have brought to my life.  I don't see how anyone would want to miss the opportunity to be a mother if they could be one.  Sure, it isn't always a piece of cake and sometimes you want to just bail out, but it is SO worth it.

I love the mother's of my grandchildren.  They are all beautiful, wonderful women who put their kids first and have given me 13 beautiful reasons to live.  I love being a grandma even more than being a mom.
