Happy Birthday, Mom!

 

January and February are two busy months in my family!  We have a lot of birthdays!  Today is my Mom's birthday!  Happy Birthday, Mom!

 

My Mom is a fun lady.  She makes us all laugh a lot!  I think I get my goofiness from her!  For that I am very thankful!  I'm so blessed to have a Mom ( & Dad, too!) that have always been there for me to help me whenever I need it.  Whether it was an ear to listen to my problems and give me advice, or money for whatever I needed, I knew that I could always count on them.  They would both give me the shirt off of their back if I was ever in need.  I really have some amazing parents!

 

I'm also thankful for the relationship that Debbie Kay and I have.  I call her Debbie Kay often.  Mostly when we are out in public because I feel like she hears me better instead of calling her Mom.  Haha!  I'm glad she goes along with it too!  We have fun with it!  I'm glad that I have the relationship with my Mom where I can tell her anything.  I always feel like I can go to her with any problem that I'm having.  She is one of the hardest people for me to keep a secret from because I always tell her what's going on in my life.  I'm also thankful that she's taken my husband in as one of her own.  I feel like he is loved just like me and my sister are and for that I am so grateful.  Now he's the one that gets a peach cobbler made specifically for him every time we come home.  Hello!

 

My Mom is also talented.  She is the best piano player that I know.  And she's pretty good at directing choirs even if me, my sister, and Hailey made fun of her on this one song where she had to wave her arms in the air so fast.

 

If I lived closer to my parents, tonight I would have invited them over for dinner.  I would have made something delicious for my Mom.  Maybe tacos...or chicken cordon blue....or even pinto beans, turnip greens, potatoes, and cornbread!  I'd finish the night off with an Italian Cream Cake too!  She loves those! Maybe one day I'll live close enough to where I can do this.

 

Happy Birthday to you, Mom!  I love you so much and am so thankful for everything that you have done for me.  You are the best!

 

Lots of Love,

Your Daughter :)
