When Kara was a little girl.... she learned the Primary song.... "Mother.... I Love You" She would sing that to me on Mother's Day...... for years. The most precious year was when Kara was serving on her church mission in New York. Now... in that eighteen month period... I could only talk to her on Christmas and Mother's Day..... When Mother's Day came.... I missed the call... and on my voice message.... she sang.... "Mother I love you.....Mother I do......" I cried and cried... Later.. we did get to talk that day. I kept that sweet song and played it while she finished her mission... It was of great comfort to hear her lovely voice. A new Mother's Day came this year. We would not be together that day..... when I opened my card... she sang....Yes, Mother I love you. For over 25 years.... the magic of hearing my daughter sing this song to me, will forever touch my heartstrings.

Aaah, i actually got a bit teary on that one auntie of mine. what a sweet little daughter you have. i sing that song to each of my kids only i insert their names in instead of "mother". they call it the "i love you" song and request it often.
