Happy Mother's Day to all the Mother's in our family. Those in our family owe much to all the mothers who came before us. Below are photos of some of these amazing women -- grandmothers, great-grandmothers, 2nd great-grandmother, etc. They were the very heart and soul of their families. They settled new lands, traveled in wagons, gave birth at home, sang lullabies to their babies, sewed all their clothes, cooked over campfires and wood stoves, washed clothes on a washboard, grew gardens, made bread, preserved their own food, taught their children to believe in God, buried children and husbands, had faith to carry on, and most of all they loved their families. We would not be here without their love, strength, and courage.
