Great Examples to Me!

On the day my nephew Aidan was bless a guy in my dad's ward got up to bear his testomy and asked all the mothers of the babies that were blessed that day to stand up. My sister in-law stood up with the other two moms. In his testomy he said that those women who stood up just a moment ago showed courage, strength, compassion, and love. They are the strongest members of our church. I believe him now. I had the earge to stand up and bear my testomy that day but the thought of getting up in front of everyone was the most terrifying experience that i only did when asked by the bishopbric and i was about to volunteer myself. But there was something that i wanted to get off my chest. My sister in-law is one of the most amazing women i know. For her to have two kids under the age of two and get up in the morning wow. No when i have kids i hope that i have the strength that she has and the patience. She's the most loving person i know that will do anything for anyone and not ask questions about it. She a person that doesnt care what people think about her or say about her. She is still and always will be my best friend even though we dont hang out that much anymore, but that's not the point my point is that when i have kids i want them to know where they are learning everything from (me) and i learned everything from my sister in-law about how to be a great mom. So i just want to say Thank You to my sister in-law Maggie. Another thing is that i feel blessed to have such great friends like Jodi Crosby and Jerah Seggie to show me how to be a great mom. I know Jodi and I since we got married always talked about how much we wanted to be a mom, when she told me she was expecting Lucy (which by the way she is the cutest thing ever) I was so excited for her and dave. I know how special that ment to her. I just wanted to say that I'm just wanted to express my love for all the mothers out there. President Monson said it best in the april session of general confrence last year, our wifes are the backbone of this religion without them nothing would get done.
