Mother's Day

My sister and I have to spend this Mother's Day away from the woman who has been there since the beginning. Mom, you've been such a dear friend to us - always fun and wise and willing to spend girl time with your daughters. Your ability to be a mom, a friend and a woman of God has always been so inspiring. We love you so much and are so sad we can't be with you today.

To our mother and all mothers reading this, here is some encouragement in Steven Curtis Chapman's words. You are changing the world "One Heartbeat At A Time."

You're up all night with a screaming baby

You run all day at the speed of life
And every day you feel a little bit less
Like the beautiful woman you are

So you fall into bed when you run out of hours
And you wonder if anything worth doing got done
Oh, maybe you just don't know
Or maybe you've forgotten

You, you are changing the world
One little heartbeat at a time
Making history with every touch and every smile
Oh, you, you may not see it now
But I believe that time will tell
How you, you are changing the world
One little heartbeat at a time

With every "I know you can do it"
Every tear that you kiss away
So many little things that seem to go unnoticed
They're just like the drops of rain over time
They become a river

And you, you are changing the world
One little heartbeat at a time
Making history with every touch and every smile
Oh, you, you may not see it now
But I believe that time will tell
How you, you are changing the world
One little heartbeat at a time

You're beautiful
You're beautiful
How you're changing the world
You're changing the world

You, you are changing the world
One little heartbeat at a time
Making history with every touch and every smile
Oh, you, you may not see it now
But I believe that time will tell
How you, you are changing the world
Oh, I believe that you
You are changing the world
One little heartbeat
At a time

And you're changing the world
