Happy Birthday!!!
I am not very smooth with words and hopefully this post will let you know what a great mom I have! For tradition, every birthday we celebrate in the family, we go around and say things we love and appreciate about that person. Some of the things that were said were:
- is selfless
- compassionate
- a "Great" grandma
- appreciated now more than ever now that we have kids
- fun loving
- easy to talk to & a great listener
- her grandkids light up when they see her enter the room!
My mom truly is the greatest!!! I can't think of a time that she hasn't been there for me! When I was up at school, she would be there without hesitation if I needed a shoulder to cry on or groceries in my fridge. She made every hard time in my life so much easier. Growing up and even more today she has always been a true friend and someone I can always talk to and get advice from. She has taught me so many things about myself and who I want to be. She is someone I look up to and want to be like!
I LOVE YOU MOM!!!

Happy Birthday Lynne!!!! What a sweet tribute to your mom and your words are perfect. What's really cool is that the words that were used to describe your mom also describe you (except for the grandma piece).
Moms are the best! Happy 21st Birthday Lynne! You look great. Those grandkids have a way of keeping you young.

Hi Amanda. This is Angie Larkin. My husband Nic works with your hubby at Merrill. I met you at the christmas party. I never got to see your little baby boy. What a beautiful family you have!
