Happy 6-0 Mom!!!

Happy 60th Birthday Mom!

Today my mom turns 60 years old and it is so wonderful to look back on her life and see the years and people who have shaped her into who she has become! How blessed and lucky I am to have her as my very own mother! She is truly the kindest, most selfless and giving person I know and I look up to her in so many ways! If you need an example of a great mother, wife, friend, sister, daughter, etc - she is the one to beat!

Mom - I LOVE YOU and wish you a wonderful birthday and 60 more years of happiness, health, joy, chocolate, and love!!

P.S. What a bonus that you were born on Earth Day as Earth is such a better place with you here!!!
