Mom {A Birthday Wish}

Dear Mom,

I don’t know exactly what time you were born at, and I probably shouldn’t say what year you were born in ;), but on this day, not that long ago, when you were born, Earth was truly given an angel to live amongst us. Dad calls you his goddess, and I know so many have called you a saint. You truly are an example to follow, in all aspects of your life.

You are not only beautiful, but also giving, kind, supportive, loving, and intelligent. You do so much for others…from the fair to tutoring to farm sitting to talking to me for hours on the phone. You’re always willing to offer a hand or an ear to listen.

I’m so glad you were raised on the farm and learned to live off the land, and have in turn, ingrained that in us. I only wish my brain could hold half as much of the knowledge you have. I love that you were one of the first female computer programmers in Minnesota and I’m so glad you are an Apple lover. 🙂

Thank you for being you. For always being there. For being the best mom to us girls.

“All that I am, or hope to be, I owe to my angel mother” ~Abraham Lincoln

Love,

Anni
