The most important thing about Motherhood is that it goes beyond the grave-
beyond the last thing you hear someone say-
beyond the last time you had a hug-
beyond the words you wish they could hear.
Scary, exciting, momentous, a friend for life, never completely alone again, someone to talk too, eternal perspective, linked by biology, geneology, and love.
Motherhood lessons-
Teaching, nurturing, showing.
Giggles, make beleive, friendship.
Motherhood Milestones
Births, deaths, birthdays, holidays, firsts, school, talents, competitions, vacations, visiting, graduations, boyfriends, girlfriends, spouses,

Lessons I learned from my Mother-
Say what you mean and mean what you say
Leave the judging up to the Lord
Things all work out- one way or another
___________
Lessons I learned from my daughters:
*************************
Never give up
What goes around comes around
Just kidding means- just kidding
anyone can change- given enough time
don't hold grudges
wierd is just that- weird
kids are listening when you think they aren't
Doing your best is accepted- and good enough!
XOXOXOXOXOXOX
Happy Mother's Day Melissa, Emily and Suzanne

I love you, Lori! You've been such a marvelous mother to our children! Happy Mothers Day!
What a beautiful blog Mom! I love you and hope you have a wonderful Mother's Day! You have shown me through your example what kind of mother I wanted to be to my own children. I miss you, love you, and hope I can pattern my life after yours.
You made me cry!!! You are such a wonderful mother! I wish I had a blog so I could write about how great you are! You raised us all so good and I am so happy that you were chosen to be my mom. I love you!!
What a great post. You do have some amazing daughters, but they have had an amazing mommy to teach them. Hope you have a wonderful Mother's Day!!!
Thank you for your sweet comment on my blog (My Mothers Day post)...Those were thoughtful things of you to say. You have always felt like a second mother to me (just like you said I was another daughter)...You are so and easy to talk to and so fun to be around! Thank you for being such a great example:) I love you!
Hope you had a great mothers day! I loved your post!
Youre my favorite mommy mommy!
I'm with Em's. It made me tear up too. The blog is a great tribute to you and Steven and your great kids/grandkids.
