Happy Mothers Day to all you moms out there. Give your babies (whether big or small) a hug today and remember that they're the reason you signed up for the wonderful (yet sometimes crazy) job of being a mother. I was browsing some talks online today and I came across a really nice one by President Hinckley. Here is a piece of it:"What a wonderful thing you have done as mothers. You have given birth and nurtured children. You have entered into a partnership with our Father in Heaven to give mortal experience to His sons and daughters. They are His children and they are your children, flesh of your flesh, for whom He will hold you responsible. You have rejoiced over them, and in many cases you have sorrowed. They have brought you happiness as no one else could. They have brought you pain as none other could...You have nothing in this world more precious than your children. When you grow old, when your hair turns white and your body grows weary, when you are prone to sit in a rocker and meditate on the things of your life, nothing will be so important as the question of how your children have turned out. It will not be the money you have made. It will not be the cars you have owned. It will not be the large house in which you live. The searing question that will cross your mind again and again will be, How well have my children done?"
So to all you mothers out there - YOU ROCK! Keep doing what you do best, but for today let the men in your life give you a little bit of pampering and let them take over a little of what you do best for the day!
