HAPPY BIRTHDAY
MOMMIE, today's a special day because you were born on it. Thank you for all the times you held me up on your aproned lap and sang to me. Thank you for nursing me until I had baby teeth; for reading to me; for rocking me to sleep and for tucking me in.
MAMA, today is such a blessed one because God chose to give you life. I want to say thank you for loving me; for giving me chores to do; for teaching me manners and TAKING me to church instead of just sending me. Thank you for all the many wonderful foods and meals you created for our health. Thanks too, for nursing me through all my childhood illnesses and dieseses.
MUM, August 18th is always a day I celebrate in your honour because it is a bitter-sweet day now that you're gone. God gave you 2 more years after your three score and ten and I am grateful. Thank you for your courage, dignity and patience while He permitted you time to die to say all your good-byes. Thank you for waiting on me to come home to do so.
I wouldn't have missed it for the world!
God, hold Mommy close today and wish her a Happy Birthday from me. Give Mama an extra hug today and tell her she is loved. And when you hold her, tell Mum she is missed every minute of every long day.
Thank you!
