Our Relief Society gave us a treat for Mother's Day with this quote attached and I love it so much I wanted to post it so I had it for years to come.
"Both God the Father and Adam called Eve "the mother of all living" - and they did so before she ever bore a child. Like Eve, our motherhood began before we were born. Just as worthy men were foreordained to hold the priesthood in mortality, righteous women were endowed premortally with the privilege of motherhood. Motherhood is more than bearing children, though it is certainly that. It is the essence of who we are as women. It defines our very identity, our divine stature and nature, and the unique traits our Father gave us." --Sheri L. Dew, "Are We Not All Mothers?," Ensign, Nov 2001, 96
I love my mother and all the things that define her identity...it's nice that I have a chance to do things for her now.
