Love day 10


I LOVE the women who have made me who I am. I am thankful for those women who have come before me and who are apart of my life today.

I LOVE my Grandmother Nancy Leinbach, she is the pioneer in the gospel for our family. She listened to the missionaries and joined the church even when her husband did not. She raised her children in the gospel and that had to be difficult without the support of her husband. I LOVE her for giving me the blessing of being a member of the church. Plus, she is the most wonderful Grandmother and great grand mother to my children. She just oozes love.

I LOVE my Mom. I get emotional just thinking about her and what she means to me. Growing up I had no sisters, and I was lucky enough to have her as my closest friend. Now as an adult I revere her. Experiencing life challenges myself, and knowing all that she has endured in her own, I respect her counsel, and see her wisdom. She too is the greatest Grandma. Whenever we go to see her she is waiting there with open arms for my children. She is a great love oozer too!

And now I am continuing the family line with my own little girl. I hope someday she will come to appreciate the posterity that has come before her and that has helped create the greatness that is in her. I LOVE my daughter!
