My Mom

My mom celebrated her birthday on November 21st. It was so fun to spend time with her! We had take-out breakfast from Mimi's Cafe... their pumpkin pancakes are to DIE for! Then we had lunch with family at my moms ever-favorite, Bajios. Followed by a late-matinee of Twilight... which, my mom perfectly stated as being the CHEESIEST movie she has ever seen. Then, we came home for some pizza and some yummy icecream cake from Baskin Robins. It was really good. Then, off to bed we went! It was a fun day, if I do say so myself!

Now, let me brag for a minute.... I have the most amazing mom in the whole world. I haven't met a better woman. She is so strong and so dedicated to doing what is right. My mom has never had the "easy" road. It seems like she has always had to endure difficulty in one form or another. She is constantly overcoming. Despite the challenges she faces, she is eager to help. She is eager to love. My mom is so amazing. She has taught me so much, sometimes with words, but mostly by example. She LIVES righteously. I'm so greatful Mercydez has the Ahma she has. We are better and stronger because of her.

So, although this post comes a little late, okay, a lot late, know that we love you and we hope your birthday was all you wanted it to be!
