Happy Mother's Day!

I just wanted to take a minute to let my Mom know how much I love her! She is such an amazing woman, and I look up to her more than anyone! She is one of my best friends and I love knowing I can call her up anytime, day or night and she is there to listen and give advice! She is the epitome of self sacrifice, I can't remember a time when her needs came before ANYONE else's! She is so loving, understanding, beautiful and strong. I am so blessed to have such an amazing example in my life of what a true mother is. I cherish all the memories I have with you, Mom, from playing Memory, watching "Days" while folding laundry, going to Winchell's Donuts after doctor's appointments, all the field trips and class parties you helped with, my many fancy birthday cakes, chocolate chip cookies in bed, to the long talks after I moved out about "needs and wants" and just about life in general. I was beyond grateful to have your help when Kate was born, I would have been lost without you! You are the BEST Mom in the world and I can only hope I will be half the mother to Kate that you are to me! Thanks for being so wonderful! I love you Mom! Happy Mother's Day, and BIRTHDAY!!!
