happy birthday, mom


happy birthday, mom. you are one of a kind; fantastically funny, charming and friendly, youthful and hip, intelligent and accomplished. you find the best in others, making people feel good about who they are and what they have to offer. you are the best travelin' companion anyone could hope for in life.


"My mother is a woman
who speaks with her life,
not merely her tongue."

That is such a wonderful post. I really hope my children can feel the same about me in a few years! (I love your mum too ... I'm all signed up over at her blog and she's delightful!)
