    Today, April 14th, is my Mom’s birthday. She is a fabulous lady, and I’m lucky she’s the one I get to be like one day ;)

    I want to take a moment and write down 9 things I love about her. Why 9 things? Well if you add her age together it equals 9, and if I publicly announced her actual age I might not make it to my next birthday. Ok, here goes:

    1. I love the way her eyes still sparkle.  And I love that I was blessed with her eyes.
    2. I love her unwavering faith.  She is a rock in our family.
    3. I love that she pulls me back to reality.  Something I often need.
    4. I love that I can count on her– she’s been the same my whole life.
    5. I love that she raised us kids to be independent and think for ourselves.
    6. I love how she always pushes us to be better people spiritually, mentally, emtionally, and physically.
    7. I love her confidence.
    8. I love how she could have rocked the business world’s face off, but chose to be selfless and raise a family.
    9. I love that she’s my Mom.  And that one day I’ll be just like her :)

    Momma, thank you for being the amazing woman I know.  I’ve learned so much from you in my 23 years on this earth and I know I have much, much more to learn from you.  I can’t imagine my life without one of my best friends, biggest supporter, life coach, fashion consultant, personal jeweler, therapist, adviser, spiritual rock, role model, and mother.  You leave BIG shoes for me to fill, but at least I get to learn from the best.  I love you!!!
