HAPPY BIRTHDAY MOM

This is my way back When-sday Picture and a very Happy (late) Birthday (July 7th) to my mom.
My mom is the greatest person you'll ever meet. I want her to know that I love her and I'm so grateful for all she does for us. My mom is such a strong person, no matter what life throws at her she faces it head on with no hesitation. She had to deal with loosing a husband in a car accident, leaving her at home with 2 14 year old, a son on a mission and 3 older kids. She is an amazing person, I don't know how she kept herself going dealing with that tragedy. She moved to Utah in 2001 to be closer to her children. She had to deal with my brothers divorce and 4 years later still having to deal with the stress of the divorce. She has to deal with me having a child before I was married and with all the stress of that. The list could go on and on.
I am most grateful for the wonderful Nana she is to all 20 grand kids. She is close to all of them and she always remembers their birthdays and Christmas. I look up to my mom she has been thrown so many obstacles and she is still going to this day with her head held high. She is my best friend and I love that we talk everyday. I would be lost if it wasn't for her. She welcomed my husband Clay into our family and she is being the mom that he never had. She is more of a mom that his ever was or will be, she feels the pain he feels and treats him so wonderfully. I love her for that. The list could go on and on. But I want her to know I wish her a very happy birthday and I love you so much and I look forward to our daily phone calls. I am so lucky my kids have a great grandparent, they love you and love being with you. Thanks for all you do and for being a great mom. We all love you!!!
