Find a reason to love me.

"...ain't a woman alive that could take my mama's place..."

Once again, I need you to stop what you're doing and go grab some type of beverage. I'll wait.

No thanks, I already have mine.

Ready? Ok, heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeere we go:


- Here's to the woman who gave me my nose.

- Here's to the woman who has the most distinctive laugh I've ever heard.

- Here's to the reason I respect women.

- Here's to a woman who managed to get her MBA while working full time, being a pastor's wife and raising three, um...mischevious kids.

- Here's to the woman who always knew all of my teachers.

- Here's to the woman who always encouraged our hobbies even if she didn't understand them.

- Here's to the woman with the most beautiful smile God ever created.

- Here's to the woman who has set an incredibly high standard for whatever woman gets stuck with me.

- Here's to the woman who insists on pestering me until I bring her whatever woman gets stuck with me.

- Here's the woman who is responsible for me having thinner hair than my father.

- Here's to the woman who would take that disgusting mix of flowers and feathers that I had made for her and treat it like the greatest treasure in the world.

- Here's to the woman who gave birth to three children but is a mother to so many more.

- Here's to the woman who refuses to acknowledge that I am an adult.

- Here's to the woman who shows me everyday what it really means to love.


Happy birthday, Mommy.
