Today is our Mother’s birthday. I think there are 32 of us now who call her Mom or Gram, and she makes each one of us feel like we are the most loved person on the planet.

I want to be just like her.

She is a gift.

We are so blessed.

Thank you, God for the gift of our Mother.

Happy birthday, Mom!

(We’ll take a new picture with everyone when Turner and family are in from South Korea).

“If I could speak all the languages of earth and of angels, but didn’t love others, I would only be a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal. If I had the gift of prophecy, and if I understood all of God’s secret plans and possessed all knowledge, and if I had such faith that I could move mountains, but didn’t love others, I would be nothing. If I gave everything I have to the poor and even sacrificed my body, I could boast about it; but if I didn’t love others, I would have gained nothing.”

“Three things will last forever—faith, hope, and love—and the greatest of these is love.”

1 Corinthians 13:3 &13 NLT
