You are a beautiful, amazing woman. You have always made it so easy for me to be your mom. I don't know how or why you came that way, but I can't thank you enough.
For creating a living legacy in the form of your firstborn and her middle name. (I know. It's your legacy, but still.)
For saying this in one of your recent blog posts:
I've never heard my mother say she missed this. I've never heard her say, "I'd love to go back to that time in my life." I've never heard her say that about any time in her life. I think she savored. I think she runs her life like a slow cooker-simple, easy, tender, and deliciously flavored.
(Once again, I can die happy because of you.)
For forgiving me and life circumstances that cause me to spend so much of my time just earning a living.
Thank you for being You. I adore you.
Life In Third Person to follow. Now I have to get to work.
