Day 129: A special shout out to a special lady :)


Happy Birthday Mom!

Today is the day I send extra love to the most important woman, the most important PERSON in my life. Today I reflect on what she's given up to see me prosper, how she's supported my crazy dreams and more realistic goals, how she's pushed me to try things I was afraid to try, and how she's picked me up when I felt the world knocking me down. All the moments I've freaked out this year as the days to 30 tick down, the times I realized this person is married, or that person got their dream job, or they moved where??, she's been there to reassure me that there is nothing wrong with the direction my life is going and I'm lucky to have gotten where I am. Today is the day I say thank you for keeping me grounded, for teaching me to be a good person, for giving me unconditional love, and for telling me how proud you are when I feel like I've disappointed. You're always there and I'm always grateful. Today is the day I thank the fates for giving me the best mom a girl could ask for and my very best friend. I aspire to one day be the mother you are, and the woman you are now. Love you and happy, happy birthday!
