Today is my mom's 50th birthday. I wrote this for her:
The first person I ever knew was also the most influential person in my life.
My mother has been a mentor, coach, confident and friend
and has faithfully guided me, like a lighthouse, towards truth, love and a life worth living.
She taught me how to walk by faith and to pray when my faith was scarce.
Most importantly, she taught me to trust in Christ when I had almost no faith at all.
My mother has modelled kindness, strength and perseverance
and has taught us what it means to live selflessly.
She has made me who I am and I hope to someday be
a mirror-image of the woman who gave love and life to me.
this post made me emo. Beautiful! So totally admire this.xx
