(My mom and dad at last year’s birthday dinner)

Happy birthday to my mom!  I know that many of you have never met her, but trust me – she is the best mom out there!  She’s gone above and beyond the call of duty to raise my brother and me.  Through many years of dance lessons, piano lessons, baseball, karate, etc, etc…I have never once heard her complain about anything that we were involved in.  She faithfully paid the bills, bought our costumes/uniforms, drove us to and from, and many times sat through painfully long recitals, concerts, and games to show her support for us.  Even in my adulthood she has continued to take care of me when I needed her the most.

I love you mom!  Hope your birthday is the best yet!
