Happy Birthday Mom!

Today is my mom's birthday. I sent her a book for her to fill out of her life history...I'd like to know more about my mom as a child, teenager, and young mom. She's got lots of pictures, but not a lot of written history. So I'm hoping she will take the challenge to fill it out for my sake and for my children. My mom does a lot for a lot of people and has dedicated her life to her family. Me and my brothers like to tease her that we seemed to have to wait a little longer than others for her to pick us up from school/practices growing up, but it's because she is such a multi tasker and is doing so many other things. About 20 years ago, she joined a nations mothers or organization called American Mothers. It was just announced that she will be made President at their convention in a few weeks in Las Vegas. She is so excited to take this organization to a new level and to hopefully reach mothers of all ages through various mediums. Her big cause lately is anti-pornography conferences...educating people about how pornography not only poisons those who partake, but it also affects the people they are close to in profound ways. She is anxious to get me involved in the organization, and I'm not sure I'm quite ready to, but I want to help her if I can.

I love my mom for all she's done for me throughtout my life...she adores my children like no other person, and that means the world to me. My kids love her and go running to her car looking for treats or toys when she comes, and she will willingly watch my kids whenever I need her to...she even took them on last summer when we went to France and she got the flu while doing so.
