Dear Mary Beth,

You know how I feel about you, so of course, I wanted to do something extra special for you on Mother's Day! And since I knew we wouldn't see each other today, I decided to get a little creative.

Sooooooooooo, I secretly contacted your "kids" (who by the way, are some of the sweetest, most respectful, well-spoken and kind young people I know) and asked them to write a little something for you ..... basically a virtual Mother's Day card. We sure hope you like it and we all love you!

Sincerely,

Erika

"Dear Mom, 

Thank you for always caring for us and giving each of us kids an adventurous spirit to be bold, forge our own path, and to love others that seem unloving. You taught me to pursue my passions and put my full effort into everything I do. You truly know what it means to break free from the patterns of the world and to take the path less traveled while entrusting God with it all, and I think it's very evident in our lives that we gained that similar spirit from you. You have always kept me and our family in your prayers and God has listened and blessed every one of them. Thanks for being a mom worth celebrating, Happy Mother's Day!"

"Dear Mom,

You are my hero! I couldn't be more thankful to be your son. A quality that will always be special to me is your confidence and the way you present yourself to our family and the rest of the world. You stay true to yourself and taught us to be exactly who we are and to love how God made us. It's because of you, I believe I can achieve anything!! You have learned all of my cool dance moves, you make the meanest green Bean casserole, and you're Always there for me and you always have been. What more could I ask for?! I Love you mom! Happy Mother's Day!"

"I am thankful for my mom who had the foresight to encourage me to pray for the woman I would marry since I was ten years old. One of the greatest attributes of my mom, is her love for Jesus Christ. She is a woman who both fears and loves The Lord. Just like Alice and me, my mom knows the transformational power of the Gospel, and she lives her life with that in mind every single day. I am lucky to have you as my mom and Alice and I are so grateful for everything you do with and for us! We wish you the most blessed and happiest of Mother's Days!"

"Dear Mom (in-Law),

You deserve to have every blessing and praise on Mother's Day! You are truly a role model for every girl who aspires to be a mother some day. You are full of kindness, compassion, beauty and love. You have been such an inspiration to me and I cannot believe I have been given a wonderful mother-in-law who upholds God and his grace like you do. You are so loved by so many people and I cannot wait to share life with you since marrying the amazing, Eric. We cannot thank you enough for your kind encouragement and direction. We admire you for many reasons and I adore the home you have created for all who are fortunate enough to spend time there.

Lots of love!"
