Happy Birthday Mom



I wanted to wish my mom a very happy birthday and thank you for always being there.

December 1st is her special day. I was really hoping that my son Erik would be born 7days early just to honor that day for her. Our road hasn't always been smooth or pleasant but I am glad that now we are like the best of friends. We call eachother on a daily basis,just to talk about our day.Weather the dogs she'd groomed that day made her laugh or.... cry. Dealing with a teenager on a the regular has it's challenges and joys. Sometimes I call her to talk about the way Amber has said or done something to make me want to laugh outloud or ring her little neck.lol Maybe Kirah in her ever growing need to be independent has givin me a reason to share a proud moment or again a reason to ring her little neck..lol We are there for eachother through the good times and the bad.
Thinking back to a most heart wrenching time was the loss of my 2 pregnancies both at 15 weeks along.She didn't think twice about dropping everything she was involved with both times, to drive the 5 long hours to be with me and my family.I think she would have stayed forever if I had need it.I could tell her heart broke.... just as mind had. The heart of a mother is the heart of her daughter,she showed that to me.
Her desire for me and my family to be happy has been shown in many ways. Weather it is coming to visit,the phone calls,or the packages in the mail,(which we all love)lol
We appreciate her and love her very much.
There isn't enough computer space to write all the ways she has been there for me and how special she is.
Have a happy birthday mom I love you.......
