Well this is a few days after the fact, but it’s been hectic around here. Thursday was my Mom’s birthday. It was nice to be able to celebrate her birthday before she and my Dad returned to Ecuador. They were here for three weeks, but it went by in a blink. My Mom is great. I will be the first to admit that I’ve always been a Daddy’s girl. Growing up I think I often took my Mom for granted. I loved her, but I don’t know how much I really thought about how great she is. The older I get, combined with having become a mother myself, the more I realise how amazing she is. She is very creative and delights in making all sorts of things for her family. She is a wonderful cook. She is kind and loving and an amazing listener. She is wise and a better nurse then I’ll ever be. Mom, I am so incredible blessed to have been raised by you and to have you for my Mother. I hope I can have the kind of relationship we have with my own daughters. I love you!
I am incredibly blessed to have you for my daughter- you are so good at expressing yourself, and are an amazing mother to my precious grandbabies. I thank God every day that I get to be your mom and your friend. Love you more my Lortzie!
