Happy Birthday Mom!

Today is my dear mother's 70th birthday! She does not act or seem like she is 70! She is still going strong. What can I say about my mother....I know I am little biased but she is truly an angel on earth. My mom has been through so much in her life. She is a living example of something that puts everything and everyone before herself. My mom raised three very successful children.

Memories that stand out for me with my mom....Going to Alabama to see grandparents(just her and me), shopping, going with her to get her cut. I remember very clearly her holding me as a small child-that was the best feeling in the world. I sometimes still like to go over to her house and lay my head in her lap--I always feel so safe with her.

My mom has taught me that life is to be lived to the fullest. My mom has also taught me not to fear death. She was by my brother and my father both as they died. She is such a strong lady. I only could wish for half of the strength she has.

My mom aka GRANCI--is such a wonderful grandmother. She picks up Miranda everyday from school and takes care of her until I get off work. She thinks the sun rises and sets in Miranda and Lauren.

I can't think of a time that my mom was not there for me or was not supportive of me.

I want to wish her a very wonderful birthday! Moma I love you very much! I hope you had a GREAT day!!!!
