Happy Birthday!

It is so hard living on the other
side of the world, practically, from my Mom.
And today makes it even harder! It is her birthday today.
There is only so much I can do from all the way over here.
I figured a public, "Yipee! It's your Birthday!" post would be good.
Mom, I hope you have a great birthday.
I don't like to see you struggle. You are a wonderful example to me and those around you of  faith and good perspective. I looked through some old photos today, which only made me more homesick and miss you even more! I am in awe, as I think back through the years, at your incredible selflessness.
I'm so happy you are my Mom and that we are so close.
Happy Birthday!!
xoxo
