Its so great to have a holiday to thank mom's for all of the hard work they do, I think Russel M. Nelson describes mothers perfectly;
“During my professional career as a doctor of medicine, I was occasionally asked why I chose to do that difficult work. I responded with my opinion that the highest and noblest work in this life is that of a mother. Since that option was not available to me, I thought that caring for the sick might come close. I tried to care for my patients as compassionately and competently as Mother cared for me.
Many years ago the First Presidency issued a statement that has had a profound and lasting influence upon me. 'Motherhood,' they wrote, 'is near to divinity. It is the highest, holiest service to be assumed by mankind. It places her who honors its holy calling and service next to the angels.
Because mothers are essential to God’s great plan of happiness, their sacred work is opposed by Satan, who would destroy the family and demean the worth of women.' " Russell M. Nelson, “Our Sacred Duty to Honor Women,” Ensign, May 1999, 38
My mom is one of the best, she is my best friend and there are over 1,000 reasons why I think this but today I will share 10.

#1. She supports my brother, dad, and I in all of our crazy endeavours and even tries to become a part of them.
#2. She taught me how to make it through the hardest of trails with a smile on and a greater appreciation for other people.
#3. She will watch the Bachelor/Bachelorette with me every Monday when its on and rewind the tvo every time something crazy happens.
#4. She taught me that your never bored you just need something crafty or creative to do.
#5.She taught me that the best thing for a sunburn is conditioner.
#6.My mom has unconditional love for the whole family and she would easily sacrifice anything for anyone of us without even thinking about herself.
#7. When she laughs really hard she will occasionally snort, and this makes the rest of us laugh even harder.
#8. She taught me how to be a hostess and always be willing to invite people over and take care of them by making their stay better then their own home.
#9. She always thinks that no matter how old you are every holiday is important and should be treated such, meaning a lot of celebration. Everyone needs a break to celebrate something special.
#10. She taught me how to love with everything I have no matter what, and your mom will always be their when everyone else has left.
I love you Mommy! Happy Valentines Day
