Happy Birthday, Mom...


You've been there for all of my biggest moments and biggest days...



The day I was born (duh)...



The day I graduated from high school...


And the day I got married... to name a few.


I so wish I could be there for you on this big day for you - your birthday. Please know that I am thinking of you today and wishing I was there with you. Just think - next year I will be!


I love you more than you can know.


Happy Birthday, Mom.


XOXOXO

Thank you, sweet Mandy. Thanks to you, I'm starting this day with a big lump in my throat.

Giving birth to you was a big day for me too. You're welcome. :-)

xoxo
Mom

Aren't mothers just the best? No one can quite cook like them or make us feel better about things than mom. Your mom is special and I love reading her blog. I would imagine she sewed lots for you guys and did all kinds of fun things. I'm praying she has a wonderful birthday.

I love the sign above the hospital bed asking you to check before smoking! That's one way for the hospitals to ensure return visitors.

I love your mom's blog, she is one special lady!

I just looked at those photos again and the sign above my bed in the recovery room is hysterical. Can you imagine lighting a cigarette in a hospital?

And look at your Dad's hair! I swear, I can barely remember him having any hair, much less dark hair. What a difference 27 years makes. LOL
