Happy Mother's Day!

My mom is such a lucky lady.  Do you know why?  Well in addition to having me as a daughter ;) she also gets two shout-outs this year because mum's day was in March in the UK.  At church on Mum's Day when I was in England all the mothers and potential mothers were given flowers and a quote from David O. McKay.  The quote was as follows-

"The noblest calling in the world is motherhood.  True motherhood is the most beautiful of all arts, the greatest of all professions.  She who can paint a masterpiece, or who can write a book that will influence millions, deserves the plaudits and admiration of mankind; but she who rears successfully a family of healthy, beautiful sons and daughters whose immortal souls will exalt an influence throughout the ages long after paintings shall have faded, and books and statues shall have decayed or been destroyed, deserves the highest honor that man can give, and the choicest blessings of God."

Happy Mother's Day Mom, I'm the lucky one.
