I’m A Mama’s Boy

I am an only child. Yes, I know, that explains a lot. Lol … and I AM a Mama’s Boy.

My mom did everything imaginable throughout my childhood. She handled all the meals. She handled all the house cleaning. She handled all the laundry. She was a full-time Pastor’s wife. She babysat anywhere from 3-5 children at a time. If it was inside the house, it was Mom’s domain. She kept busy. To this day, she still stays busy with household chores and helping raise Benjamin.

My mom was/is a prayer warrior. To this day she is up between 5-6 a.m. spending time with God in prayer and Bible reading. There is no doubt in my mind that I wouldn’t be where I am today without my mother’s constant prayers. Honestly, I doubt I would still be alive. If you ever have a question about the power of prayer, ask me. I will spend hours telling you about what my mother prayed me out of over my lifetime. I will spend hours telling you about what she and Dad went through that could have been so much worse without the prayers of a loving wife/mother.

I don’t tell her enough how much I love her.

I don’t tell her enough how much I appreciate her.

I don’t tell her enough how much she has done for me.

I don’t thank her enough for her leadership and her prayers.

Happy Birthday Mom! I love you very much!

Your #1 Son,

Brent

    Thank you, son. It is only by God’s grace that I have been able to do any of these things.  I come from good stock ( your granny) and a humble beginning. God knew who you needed. Through the years God has brought the right mentors, that I have needed, at the right time to grow me into what He wants me to be. I don’t tell you enough how much I love you and how proud you make your dad and I. You are an over comer that is for sure.  Our prayer is that you stay close to God and let Him guide you. Don’t try to do life on your own. Love,Mom
