Is my sister, but she is not only that she is:
An amazing hostess She taught me how to do freezer meals
She sews the cutest stuff and made me my very own apron!
Her homemade bread, rolls and cinnamon rolls are to die for!
She also taught me how to make these! Her home FEELS like a home..and is so inviting and warm
She allways has my favorites at every get together...chips and dip
and an amazing veggie tray with ranch She has a natural gift of empathy for all people
She captures memories like no other can. she teaches herself
anything she wants to learn and excels beyond measure She coaches soccer really well
Her front porch and yard are so beautiful and inviting in all seasons She makes the most amazing cakes for birthdays!
She listens to our prophet..and is completely prepared for an emergency
Her blue eyes are just a taste of the beauty that lays within
Her home usually is filled with family, friends, and fun!
She is a natural at nurturing
She is a mommy of 4 soon to be 5 FABULOUS boys!
She Loves her husband more than anything and lets him BE
who he wants to BE!
Mandy Waters...Yes she is my sister, she is a mommy, a wife, a photographer, a cook, an artist a friend, a nurturer, a homemaker, a Gardner, a decorator, a cake maker, a hostess, an example...But most of all she is my guardian angel on earth and I am soooo happy that families are forever and our bond is eternal! She has been the most influential person in my life consistently. I love that she doesn't hide her light under a bushel. she shares her gift with so many of us and anybody that knows her feels the talent that just oooozes out of her. I could go on FOREVER about all the things she has taught me..but I think the number one thing she has given to me is a living example of unconditional love. she is so humble about her beauty inside and out. a little too hard on herself sometimes but magnificent in all areas of her life. I probably know her better than anyone other than Keith and I say she is what every woman would strive to be like. she has no problem admitting when her kids need help outside herself...I have met so many mothers that are in denial that their kids need something other than what they can give them...but not Mandy..with all her talents she still loves her boys more than herself and will check her pride out the door even brace judgments of others if it's what is BEST for her little ones. Her husband doesn't talk much to people...he keeps to himself..But not once...not ever have I EVER heard her make excuses for him or apologize for the uncomfort it brings some people..she loves him and excepts him for who he is not what others expect him to be like. She has never gone to college but she is one of the smartest woman I've met. If she wants to do something she teaches herself. she taught herself how to cook from scratch, she taught herself how to sew, she taught herself how to make just about every craft on her walls, she taught herself how to be a photographer, she taught herself how to scrap book, she taught herself how to make her home and yard beautiful. She lives within their budget..and enjoys her life. She's one of the few woman i've met that does not make excuses of why they cant...she just does it. i never hear her complain about hardships she goes through..sure she vents but she doesn't have the attitude of what can others do for me rather she takes responsibility for her choices and life and makes the necessary changes. she is my hero. i love you mandy
love your little sis
