Happy Birthday Mom!

Today is my Mom's birthday! I found these pictures of her when she went away to college in Idaho. My Mom was so excited to get out on her own! Little did she know what adventures lie waiting for her in the future.

As my Mom and I find opportunities to talk to each other, I've learned from her that all her adventures so far have been great learning experiences for her. She has grown so much since her college days.

She is many things to me and one I'd like to share is her example of service. She is ready at any moment to serve. She has helped me recover from each of my c-sections as well as my last surgery. She serves her mother who is old and frail. She is this moment in Hawaii serving my sister who is pregnant and moving a business to a new location and her family to a new house! I could go on and on about the many ways my Mother serves us and others. Thanks for everything Mom! Happy Birthday!
