We know flowers die quickly, so we wanted to post this somewhere... so I snuck on and put it on yours.  Consider it a continued Mother's Day!  

These 24 roses are for you on Mother’s Day for:

 *  Always being encouraging even if it is pessimistically encouraging.

*  Always knowing when something is wrong and wanting to make things right.

*  Sending little cards, gifts, or letters just to make us smile.

*  Always taking the time, no matter how early/late it is.

*  Loving even when it is hard to love.

*  Teaching me in God’s ways.

*  Accepting me as your own son. 

*  Being a wonderful Grandmother to our baby boys. 

*  Loving daddy the way you do. 

*  Brainstorming quirky ideas. 

*  Wanting to be close to us when we are so far away. 

*  Giving sound advice and making sure Jen and I communicate together. 

*  Every tear shed, smile given and hug squeezed. 

*  Always trying to look at things from God’s perspective. 

*  Being proud of us. 

*  Being willing to go anywhere, say anything, and do everything. 

*  All the small things you let go of and all the big things you stood up for. 

*  Being a Proverbs 31 mom. 

*  Making me fold my underwear (Jen).

*  Smacking me in the back and knocking the wind out of my lungs (leo).

*  Both of your financial support and the love that comes behind it. 

*  The fun times playing board games, even when you are drugged and winning. 

*  Searching for the weirdest of things like Styrofoam heads, plastic torsos, and civil war

    memorabilia. 

*  Being the wonderful momma that God made you to be.
