Happy Birthday to My Mother

My Sweet, happy, content Mother

A Waitress singing Happy Birthday in Italian to Mom

Mom making a wish before blowing out her candle on her cake.
I wonder what she was wishing.......
I bet she was wishing she was sewing!

Below are more pictures from our little outing Saturday at our favorite quilt store.

Isn't she beautiful?
She is as beautiful on the inside as she is on the outside.

There is no one like my precious Mother.


Your Birthday is here,
Bringing joy and pleasures new,
On this special day,
Mother dear,
I want to remember you.
I cannot give you costly gifts,
And I've told you this before,
No matter what I give to you,
You give back much, much more.
I'm giving you a pure, sweet rose,
Gathered in the early morn,
This rose you planted in my heart,
The day that I was born.
In kindly, loving thoughts of you,
And with the faith you still impart,
The rose I give to you today,
Is the love that's in my heart.

I love you MOM more than you will ever know.
Happy Birthday!

I love you,
your daughter

Delight thyself also in the LORD;
and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart.
Psalms 37:4
