Thank You, Mom

I want to take a moment to recognize what an amazing mom I have. I cannot imagine the strength it took for her to be supportive of me while I prepared to travel across the world for such a long period of time. Some say that I must be so courageous and strong to do what I’m doing and that may be true, but I know that without my mom I wouldn’t be where I am or who I am. In fact, that courage and strength must have come from her.

Please join me in praising and thanking God for my mother. She has had an enormous role to play in bringing me to this point and helping me continue on this path. Please also remember her in your prayers, as she has made an even greater sacrifice than I have with this transition.

So it is with a grateful heart and tear-filled eyes that I would like to say, “Thank you, Mom, for all that you have sacrificially done and continue to do in order to allow me to follow God’s will and become the woman He wants me to be. I pray when God blesses me with children, that I will be given the strength to love and be as amazing of an example to them as you have been to me. I love you Mom.”

Love,
Julie
