Thanks MOM

My mom turns 70 today and I want to honor her. Mom has poured so much into my life. She gave me confidence with her words. She filled our home with laughter as a kid. She encouraged me to go to Indiana, when it was time to leave my hometown, for ministry. She would slip me an extra $20.00, as a young teen to just have some fun. She prayed for me, and told me that with God all things were possible. She passed on a strong will, that says you can do it. One of my favorite things she did, was to pass on a chant to me, and my siblings, that went like this, Rain, hail, lightning, thunder, the Browns, and the Anderson's, will never go under, never, never, NEVER!


So on this day, I say this to my mom, Beverly Ann Anderson; I love you, I thank you for giving me life, I thank you for always believing in me, and will remain committed to you, the world is a better place because of you, and I will always speak highly of you, you deserve a big crown in heaven, mom!

I know you probably won't read this, because you do not own a personal computer, but I want everyone in the blogging world to know, that you are amazing..

Happy Birthday Mom!

Love jimmy

Jimmy, this is so nice! I hope when my Isaac grows up he will show so much love for me! I think of you at times and appreciate all that you have done for me when I was a teen. Your influence has shown so strong through my life...I know alot of things I have done and are planning to do are things that you have instilled in me, by your example, at a very impressionable time in my life. I know years have gone by and you may have never known this...but I love you for taking the time!!~Jill
