My Mom is Celebrating Her __st Birthday Today!

She would totally KILL me if I told the whole world how old she is turning today, so I decided to play nice! I did want to tell her Happy Birthday though! My mom is awesome! I wouldn't trade her for anything in the world....except for maybe a million dollars :)...Although she can be totally dorky sometimes, I know that she would do ANYTHING to help out her kids in any way possible! Growing up, she taught me that it was ok to skip school/work on your birthday in order to go shopping, which I still have done every year so far. (I just feel bad that she is actually "working" herself today.) She is a GREAT example to me too. As I have gotten older, I have learned quite a few things about my mom....some good and some bad, but one of my favorite things about my mom is that she is one of those "Secret Spiritual People." I'm not sure how to describe it, but she WAY more spiritual about things than what most people probably guess. She goes to the temple often, reads her scriptures pretty much everyday and when I go to her with a problem, her part of her solution always is something spiritual. I love you mom!!! Happy Birthday!
