To a Wonderful Mama

Dearest Mama,

Happy Birthday! 

You are such an inspiration to me as I see where you've come from and what God has done in your life.  You bless me more and more every day and I love you SO much!

To me, you are a priceless treasure and I know that the rest of your grateful family can say the same.  I love the funny, clever, quick witted comments that you make once in a while and how you make me laugh.  I love your smile your laugh, and your servant's heart.  I love your delicious cooking.  I love listening to Handel's Messiah while working in the kitchen with you.  I love how you stay strong in the Lord through the hard times. I love seeing your devotion to Papa, and your love for him. I love witnessing your sweet care of your family.  I love the Lord's grace and mercy to me in giving me a dear friend in you.  I love so many things about you, but most of all, I love seeing Christ in you.  You are a testimony to His perfect grace and mercy. 

May you have a blessed birthday!  I love you! 

To God be the Glory,

Love,

Hannah
