Day 8 of 100

A picture of you and someone in your family.

Again, I'm going to have to cheat on this one.  This is my new favorite picture of my mom.  It resides on the top of my entertainment center in my living room.


When I was young, my mom always had a knack for making mundane chores fun.


When I was in cross country, my mom would sprint from one part of the course to another to cheer me on and she was always at the finish to congratulate me. 

When I was a teen and majorly sassy, my mom was patient and understanding. 

She always knew how to make me laugh when no one else could.

My first all nighter was spent with my mother working on a science fair project.  It may have been the wee hours of the night, but I'm pretty sure we both got a little buzz from the rubber cement we used.  We were both so giggly.

My mom has always been there to listen and offer wise advice when I need it.

Her passion and joy for God is contagious and I credit my own personal relationship with Christ to her.

I have always found her inward and outward beauty stunning.

My mom is easily the most influential person in my life. 
Growing up she was my role model and mentor.  She has become my best friend. 
Every day I find myself becoming more and more like her, a fact I am honored to acknowledge. 

She currently lives in Colorado.  I don't get to see her nearly as often as I would like.  I miss her often.
