More than Monday...much more!!!

My "More than Monday" posts are normally done the night before & up by 7:00am but not today! This Monday and these past 6 days have been FULL of inspiration for me! My beautiful Mom had a bad fall on the 17th in the night (we are thankful it wasn't worse) but nonetheless it was definitely bad enough!!! She broke the pubic bone in her pelvic and I can't even imagine the pain she has been in. Yet I've watched her in these days lean on her inner strength & her deep faith to work through each painful movement.  After having a stroke in 2009 she worked tirelessly to regain her complete independence. And now being faced with this uphill challenge that promises to be a difficult and painful 8-10 week recovery my mom still finds the grace & strength to persevere and to run the race that is set before her. I love you Mom, you truly are an AMAZING woman and an inspiration to me & so many others!
