Now that I'm her mother (yikes!!) I appreciate the other mothers in my life.
My Mamaw. I adore my grandma. Her constant faith is such an encouragement. She is always willing to pray with you and for you and for anyone who needs praying for. Her home is inviting and she can put together a meal in a hot second. ;) She loves her family even though we're flawed. I'm thankful for her always.
My Mother in Law. She raised a good man. My Beloved would not be who he is today had it not been for her. She is loving and patient and kind. And I've never seen her lose her cool even though she spends a lot of time with the Christie men and they can be a bit exhausting. ;) I'm thankful for the man she raised.
My Mom. I'm 32 and I still need my mom. I talk to her every day. She is the strongest person I know. Her voice is the voice I hear when I'm trying to make a decision. We have great adventures that I wouldn't trade for the world. She's my on call medical professional and I would be lost without her. I'm thankful for the love she always shows - even when we're difficult.
I'm thankful for the women I look up to and hope to be half as good as them. I'm grateful for the years of loving me they have and the love they have for our girl.
I'm also very thankful for a full nights sleep! I feel like a new woman! ;)
Until next time.....
