Today, another reader shares her tribute to her mother.<\/p>\n

Here’s Gee:
“I can think of many woman that deserve a Mother’s Day Card but there is nobody like my mother, Doreen B. She raised us 4 children on her own and never gave up. She worked and made sure we had the best that she could get for us. She lived miles from us until about 7 years ago then she moved here to Idaho to be closer to us all. <\/span><\/p>\n

This past year her health has not been the best but she never gave up and she puts her love in the Lord and what he can do for us all. Even at the age I am at now–she is always there to be my mama. I can still call her and tell her, “Mama, I just need someone to talk to.” So we can talk, pray and laugh. She knows my dreams for my children and for myself. She knows the heartache I continue to hold onto to help my husband in hopes he will accept Jesus as his personal Savior. She knows I have a strong heart. But what she does not know is I got that strong heart from her.<\/span><\/p>\n

My mom deserves the best…”<\/p>\n

Thanks, Gee, for sharing your tribute to your mom. And she does deserve the best. It was my pleasure to send her a special Mother’s Day postcard.–Lyn<\/p>\n
