Have a wonderful b-day! (actually on the 16th, but we celebrated this past weekend cause Joelle was home) I could make a "Top 1,000 great things about my Mother" list, but since I only have limited time until one of the kids wakes up, I'll make it a top 3 list...and actually these aren't necessarily THE top 3 things, just the first 3 that came to mind...
1. Your constant example of not only a godly wife, mother and grandmother, but also a woman who is generous, kind, and goes WAY out of the way to always show love to family, friends and others in need of encouragement.
2. You listen (and we know how I can go on and on and on) and somehow manage to help solve my problems by slipping in advice and council, even when I'm too stubborn to ask for it. AND when I need that not-so-gentle shove towards the right thing to do, you know when it's necessary to use both arms to push! :-) Keep doing that, by the way, cause I think I'm getting more stubborn the older I get, rather than less stubborn...
3. You look about 15 years younger than you really are...hopefully this is a genetic thing.
Happy b-day! I love you!
