Dear Mom,
I miss you. I really appreciate what a great mom you were to
me and are now. You worked hard for your family. You lived the gospel and
taught your children the gospel. You sacrificed your own wants and desires so
your children would have opportunities in life.
I appreciate you having me learn to play the violin. The
process of daily practice and precision has crossed over into other parts of my
life, especially in relation to spiritual matters.
You always knew what I needed even when I didn’t. Your focus
on scripture study, and prayer was a great example to me. Because of your
example, I “know what source I should look to for a remission of my sins.” (2
Nephi 25:26) You were a great support to me in helping me resolve some of the
physical hardships that a teenager faces such as braces, acne, and weight. I
appreciate you letting me be who I wanted to be. I knew you were proud of me
for being kind to my peers in junior high and high school and for the good
grades and extra curricular activities I was involved in.
I’m proud of you for what you are doing now in your life.
You are an example of enduring to the end and doing it well. I know it isn’t
easy and you wish you could skip this part. I’m not sure why we have to go
through the things we do but I do believe it is to make better as well as those
around us better.
