I just want to post a few pictures of my sweet mom's 5oth Birthday Party. (Sorry it's so late, her birthday was on February 15th.)
WARNING: I might get all reminiscent and weepy and mushy, but I can't help it.

Dad and MomSo I have been trying to write a little tribute to my mom to tell her how much I love her and how much she means to me. Instead of a beautifully written letter, it has went something like this: type, type, type, cry, delete, sniff, sniff, type, cry, cry, sob, delete, sniff, wipe my snotty nose, type and delete some more... well , you get the picture.
I think of my mom, and all of the love and emotion I have for her just spills out my eyes... and runny nose, I guess. That's a whole lotta love, Momma!
Mom, I want to tell you how much I love you. 'Thank you' and 'I love you' seem so inadequate. The best tribute I can give, is to try to become the kind of mother you are and always have been. I love you and hope that I'm just as fabulous when I'm 50!
3 pennies for your thoughts:
Aw, that was sweet Lissa. I would have to agree with everything you just said. We were really blessed with an incredible mom.
What a beautiful tribute to your mom!...feelings can't always come through words....but they are certainly felt!
My mom never told me she loved me.. until a few years before she left me!...but I know she loved me so much! Yep! now I am crying. God understands our tears and so do mother's!
You are a great mom and will be like your mother! I agree she is the best!
Love you!

It is too late sis. Everytime I see you I see a little bit of me in you...mostyly good...some not so good. You are an awesome wife and mother and I would like to think that a little of that came from the way you were raised. I too have a great momma that taught me well and loved much. so Thank you from the bottom of my heart for those beautiful words and thoughts. I love you so much and am so blessed to have everything I need in my hubby and kids. (Well, except for diet coke and lays chips and chocolate.)
