Blessed is My Mother

"And blessed is my mother,
For she is a mother in Israel
And shall be a partaker with my father
In all his patriarchal blessings.
Blessed is my mother,
For her soul is ever filled with benevolence.
She shall yet be comforted in the midst of her house;
She shall have eternal life."
The prophet Joseph Smith wrote this in his journal,
but I wish I'd written it
for it is surely true
of my own
beautiful, loving,
blessed
mother.

Happy Mother's Day!

Thank you darling daughter. Of course you make me cry. Just so you know I feel blessed to be Your Mother. When the Lord tells us that we will have joy in our posterity--all five of my children, their spouses and of course my grandchildren bring me the greatest joy possible. Love Mom.
