Happy Birthday, Mom!

Yep - Mom and Hubby share the same birthday! Crazy, huh? (They also share it with Mike's twin sister, Michelle, and my friend Carol - busy weekend!)But this one goes out to Mom! Here are ten reasons I am thankful for my Mom:

1. She gave me life. Ha ha ha. And it's a good life.

2. She read me books - and I love reading!

3. She always made our house a home - a place that's always safe, cozy, and welcoming.

4. She's protective of her girls. (And a worry-wart!)

5. She taught us the value of family.

6. Her giggle. Guess where I got that from?

7. She's strong and faithful.

8. She's a good listener.

9. She's thoughtful.

10. She's patient.

I love you, Mom!
