mommy dearest....

Dearest Mom,

I am so glad that I chose you to be my mother before coming to earth. Being my mom was not an easy job especially in my teenage years and I look up to you so much for having the patience you had to raise 5 kids. Thank you for not giving up on me when all hope was lost . You've been my rock since having Makayla. I'm so glad I have a mom to call anytime I have questions about how to soothe my cranky baby. Thank you for letting me cry to you when I was in desperate need of assurance that I was doing all I could do to be a good mom myself. I will never forget the time I was in walmart sobbing because my newborn would not sleep, eat or stop crying and you came out a few days later just because you knew I needed you here. I love you so much, words just cant express it.
I am so happy to have 2 wonderful parents who have been together for many many years. I couldn't imagine what life would be like if my parents were divorced and am so grateful to have you both stay strong through all the trials and tribulations that came throughout the years

Makayla has such an amazing grandma. She loves you so much, she has always felt so comfortable when you were holding her. I'm so excited to have you come watch her while we go on our trip so you and her can build a stronger relationship. I love you so much mom! Thank you for everything you do for me and my family. Your seriously amazing and it may sound cliche, but I really couldn't have asked for a better mom. Happy Mothers Day!!!!

  1. What a nice tribute Ashley! I'm sure your mom was touched by this. Glad you had a great time in Jamaica (cool pics!) and can't wait to see you guys at the Reunion! Love, Aunt Carol
