Happy Birthday, Mother! I can't even imagine what birthdays in Heaven are like. But I'm sure they're the best. :) I hope it's filled with coffee, crab legs, cats, tulips, chocolate, awesome SHOES, and lots of joyous moments and laughter! We all miss you tremendously and cannot wait to see you again! You are the best mother and friend and grandmother a girl could ask for. Life will never be the same without my #1 fan here, but I'm so thankful that we had as much time as we did to spend together. I wish Layla could remember you and that you were able to see her grow and her personality just a little bit more at least... She's definitely your granddaughter! :) Stubborn, goofy, hilarious, and beautiful.
I love you, Ma, today and always. <3
