It’s going to be a day late. – Happy Birthday Mom.

Hi Mom! Happy Birthday! I have been working on a post about you- and I should have started earlier. The words are not capturing the amazing spirit you have. So, I am going to keep working on it. I do not want to undersell how amazing you are.

I can’t say it enough, I am so grateful you are my mom. I could not have done anything without your support. You are helping me raise my son, and you have still been raising me this whole time.

I am who I am because of you. I think it is a good thing. I turned out okay.

I love you so much! I am far away working, and missing you terribly!

I am so glad you are my mom. Imagine if I had a different one, there is no way I would be as badass as I am. (hehe.)

You have been so supportive, all you ever told me to do is to be happy. To follow my dreams. You have allowed me room to make my own mistakes, and you have supported me through recovering from those mistakes.

You are one of my best friends, even if you don’t like the same movies, music, or books that I do. You will listen to me prattle on and on.

You have learned about the things that interest me, and you can talk about anything I am interested in. See?

You have always been my champion, and you have fought for me, helped me fight for myself, and helped me pick up the pieces if I made a mess of every thing.

I love you so much. I hope your day is special and wonderful.

PS. Thanks for taking care of my son. And my cats. And me. Gee- a mother’s job is really never done is it?

I love you. Happy Birthday. Even if you did name me wrong. (hehe)
