Awwww... "Thank you!" Mom... from (me!) your #1!
-and my daughter designed this card. says so on the back.. "thank you baby!". -great job
***
my mom has always made all three of her children feel very loved and extra special. my older brother; her first born and only son. my younger sister; very special ranking as 'the baby'.. last of the children she would give birth to.. and me.. in the middle.. but she always says #1 to mean 1st daughter...
and my mom has also always made us feel extra special on our birthdays.. and even more so on milestone birthdays: 13, 16, 18, 21, 30, 40...
and it turns out, my brother and I both have February bdays and we are 3 years apart so, when he turned 16, I was turning 13.. that's two milestone birthdays together, so she threw an extra big! party for the two of us together.. renting a space, hiring entertainment... catering.. you name it.
and when my brother was turning 21 I was turning 18.. two milestones in February again.. and a big birthday bash it was!!
great memories. -and we celebrated my brothers 50th in a big way 3 weeks ago.. /oh that was 3 years... -see what happens..
and it is my turn this year. and I am just so grateful because I know now, in a way I never quite knew before.. just how much love and time and effort and energy and phone calls.. and logistics..
she puts into any of her children's milestone birthday parties.
I LOVE YOU MOM! and I'm very excited to party with my family, -because a very awesome family I do thank God I have..
