So, I know that it has been a little while since I posted last, and you might think that this post is a little late, but it is never too late to celebrate our moms.
I was browsing Facebook earlier today, when I came across a picture that was shared by LDS Smile Podcast with a quote that says: "The moment a child is born, the mother is also born. She never existed before. The woman existed, but the mother, never. A mother is something absolutely new. ~Rajneesh"
I am so grateful for my mom. She has been there for me when times have been dark, waiting with love and kindness. I am also grateful for all of the wonderful mothers that I know that have been extraordinary examples to me. I am especially grateful to my wife for being the love of my life. I am grateful to know that she will be the mother of our children, who will rear them with love and devotion. I know that she will teach them all of the right things, she will teach them the Gospel and she will show them the same love that our Heavenly Father has given her and I.
I know I cannot control what gender of baby that we get first, or second, or third, or however many babies we are blessed with, but I hope that we have at least one boy, so he can experience what it is like to have a loving mother. I know that this is the same way that our Heavenly Mother feels for all of her boys, and I know that it is important for all men and as Priesthood holders, to love our Heavenly Father's daughters, because He loves his wife, more than words can describe.
So, all of us men, remember to treat your wives with love and respect and do all that you can to make sure you will be with her in the eternities. Here is a link from a talk that was given in the October 2011General Conference by Sister Elaine S. Dalton: http://www.lds.org/general-conference/2011/10/love-her-mother?lang=eng. It's a good one and all should read it.
I hope that all of you enjoy this post, especially all of you mothers.
