Happy Birthday Gigi!

Today is a special day, it's my mom's birthday. I wish we were there so we could celebrate in style. We did have the chance to sing and open presents last week when we were all together, but it just doesn't feel the same. Mom, I hope you have a wonderful year. One that is filled with many rich blessings and special wishes. We love you.

I love Gigi for many reasons and these are just a few:

She is my best friend, one I want to talk to each and every day and several times in between.

Gigi loves to play with the kids. And I mean "down on the floor" kind of playing. Make believe, princess play, games, reading, going to the park, watching kids videos, making cookies, riding bikes around the block.

She is patient and tolerant.

She is always on our side. We can count on her to support us in all of our endeavours.

She is interested in the little things, simple details of our life.

I can call her with very important news or just the boring details of my day and she will listen intently as if it's all the same to her.

She is stylish, and loves to decorate. I wish I had the same sense of fashion.

She is always willing to help and offer service to us, many times at her expense.
She loves us all. Unconditionally.

Thank you, mom.
