I entered her in a mother of the year contest..with the following essay. It had to be 100 words or less... I didnt' really count

AND SHE WON~ I am sooo excited!

She won a custom made Mother's Ring..and a Day at the Spa..which she needs!

Here is what I wrote..and they PICKED!

I would like to nominate a friend and a co-worker. She is what I aspire to be as a mother.
Mother's Days are hard for her since she lost her own Mom unexpectedly. I was hoping something like this would give her a good memory for years to come.

Mrs Cindi Wade has 3 beatiful daughters whom are her life. I never see her when she isn't leaving to go to a track meet, basketball game, volleyball, or a barrel race. She has more energry then anyone I know. Not only does she raise her 3 daughters she also took her 8 year old Nephew into her home. He went though alot and needed a more stable home life. She stepped up and opened her heart and her home to him. It hasn't always been easy for her, but her and Tyler have learned from each other. He has learned that she will NEVER leave him.

Another thing that makes her a great Mom is what she does for our next generation of cowboy and cowgirls. Her and her husband Scott Wade are rodeo contractors who put on a great junior Rodeo. She is the first at each rodeo and the last to leave. She is the most helpful with questions each cowboy and cowgirl has and has offered each one a word of encouragement. Everyone says the that a cowboy is the last of a dying breed..but Cindi does her best to make sure that doesn't happen in the time she offers to teach and help other people enjoy a life style that is fading fast.

I would like to say that her husband and her children are very lucky people for having her in their lives, and so am I.

Thank You,
