Mother's Day

My mom and I have been going to visit my brother together on Thursdays for a while now. Afterwards we stop at this donut shop along the way and get a couple of dozen of donuts. It has been a really great time for us. Yesterday however, I just got an extra dose of joy, just being there with her. We were listening to a song by Chris Tomlin "Amazing Grace (My Chains Are Gone). It was a time for appreciation of the wonderful person my mom is, and a time of worship. And just as we have in the weeks before, we stopped at that same donut shop, and got a couple dozen of donuts. I silently thank God all the time for the woman my mother is, for the importance of family she has instilled into me, and the values she has taught me.
