Happy Birthday Momma!

Today is my sweet Momma's birthday! As I've shared before, she's truly one of the kindest souls that ever lived, she's talented in so many ways and has a fun personality to match. I love this picture because it captures that cute little spark in her eyes.

Because my surgery fell so close to her birthday, my sister and I celebrated with her early. We took her to a wonderful local Chinese restaurant and then spent the rest of the afternoon shopping for fabric at JoAnn's. (If you know my Momma, that's about as close to heaven as it gets!) = ) She's always got lots of ideas and typically several projects going on at once. My sister and I had so much fun helping to pick out fabric for something special she is making for a certain couple getting married later this year...(wink, wink!) At the restaurant, they made a huge fuss over her, singing and bringing her a special dessert. Such a fun memory. She was blushing, but she enjoyed it so much. I love you, Momma! May your day be filled with all things special! = )

Happy Birthday to your dear, precious mother! You can see God's love in her beautiful face. Aren't we so very fortunate to have them with us ...to celebrate them and ALL they mean to us? I am so thankful that you are feeling better.

Ahhh...this is so precious. I, too, love that twinkle in her eye. I love your comment of the fabric store being the closest thing to Heaven. I have a good relationship with my mom but feel like that spark is sometimes missing...that spark I feel in this post.

Hope you continue to recover.

I sent you an email last week about your gift. I hope you got it. If not, please let me know as I don't want my gratitude to go unknown to you.

I just had to come back and tell you that your comments always bless my socks off. Even when I read them on other blogs, the love and kindness you have for others can be heard even in a few short sentences. God bless you richly!

Oh my Tracy... what missing a few days of blog hopping can do. I totally missed your prayer request, your surgery, and the great day you had afterwards. Please forgive me. I am so glad that God saw to it to bless you with His presence through this!! I will pray for your continued recovery...

Also, Happy Birthday to your precious mom!
Love ya,
Lynn
