Dear Momma,
There is so much to say about you, Momma and so much to be
grateful for. There is so much I've learned from you! From learning how to pee
in the toilet to learning how to truly help someone in need. You are a part of
me, and I a part of you. I can feel your thoughts and your prayers each day and
it is a motivator for me to keep pressing forward despite the harshness of the
world. I've been well prepared to take a big leap into the real world because
of the love, patience, and selfless attitude of yours. When I feel like I'm
being cornered, I can always count on you being there waiting and wanting to do
all that you can to help me. It was your hand that perfectly fit in mine as a child that would make me feel
safe and loved. It was your prayer that I felt safe and watched over during the
Hurricane that hit Mississippi. It was you that put your arm around me and
would scratch my back as I wept over the start of my 8th gd year. It was you that
would drive me to the temple and would talk to me about its significance as we
sat in its parking lot. It was you that I would count on greeting me every
morning before school and would tell me you loved me. Ant it was you that
whispered into my ear as we said good-bye before I walked into the MTC,
"I'm so proud of you! You are going to do great things!" Memories
such as these I will never forget. You have been here for me every step of the
way! On this Mother's Day and every Mother's Day in the past I always thing of
the Primary song "Mother, I love you" I love the words that are
contained in this song. "Mother, I love you, Mother I do, Father in Heaven
has sent me to you. When I am near you, I love to hear you singing so softly
that you love me too. Mother, I love you; I love you , I do" Words can't adequately
describe the amount of love and care I have for you. You are my best friend
Momma! And you always will be. Forever and Always, Colten
