Today is the anniversary of my wonderful mother's birth! She is such a kind, loving, generous, patient soul who loves her enormous family with all of her heart and goes out of her way to make others smile.

I know I've only had the blessing of knowing this woman for 25.5 years, but she's graced the earth with her presence for a few years more (I could give you fun numerical facts that would lead you to her age, but as part of her birthday present from me, I will refrain; you're welcome, mom!).

She's had the opportunity to do some traveling in her lifetime. I have no idea the number of States she's traveled to, but we'll just leave it at: she's traveled coast to coast, plus Mexico, Canada, U.A.E., and Ethiopia!

And as I
recently stated, my mom has been my #1 fan for 25 years. This woman has been amazingly supportive and caring towards all three of her very unique daughters. She was able to cater to each child and she's always been there for us.

Not only is she present for her family, she's also very active in her community - from organizing teams for
Relay for Life, chili cook-offs,
Meals of Hope to gathering donations for the
City Mission to participating in local Bahá'í activities. She's Wonder Woman.
