Mom’s expanding influence over the years

Mom,

Here’s a little timeline for Mother’s Day.  Sorry, I didn’t have one of just Jere, or one with Stephen as a baby.  (If anyone has pictures of Mom with all her kids to that point that aren’t shown here, PLEASE add them!)

Thank you for your never-ending work, sacrificing your time, talents, energy, health, sleep, sanity, money, and everything else you had for us over the years.  During the process we all gave you MUCH TOO LITTLE of the appreciation, respect, and love that you deserved.  And though it seemed like an almost constant battle with at least one of us at any given time, ALL of us can say that we are who we are because of your efforts, we’re the better for it.  Hopefully we honor you now by who we’ve become, and that you have been able to find joy and rejoicing in your posterity.  Thank you for continuing to bless our lives however you can.

Happy Mother’s Day, Mom!

We love you!

The Freeman 10
