Happy Birthday Mom

Today is my mother's birthday (42 and going strong!). She refers to it as her 'birthday weekend', as one day alone wouldn't be enough. I agree, one day isn't enough to celebrate her life. Every day should be a celebration. Another day to talk, to laugh, maybe even cry. There are good times, bad times, and all the others in between. Even though I and her don't always see eye to eye, I still love her more than I could ever express. She's been a huge support to me throughout my life, and I hope that one day I'll have half the integrity and spiritual strength she does. So, here's to you mom, for 42 and beyond.
