Sometimes I get so caught up in being your Mom-
still trying to look out for you
and worrying about every little thing-
that I don’t take the time to tell you what you deserve to hear.
I’m amazed by you-
with everything you’ve accomplished,
and how busy you are every day,
you’re still one of the kindest,
most thoughtful people I know.
I’m inspired by you-
your courage, your ambition,
the way you look at life.
Even when things are challenging,
you keep your positive attitude.
I’m proud of you-
and always have been.
You know exactly you you are
and you do a beautiful job of expressing it.
I love watching you be “you”
And I love being you Mom.

Thanks, I did very little to the lighting in Photoshop except resize, I can’t believe she’s 16, my baby!!!

Thanks, the poem isn’t mine, it’s on the birthday card I gave her. But I’m very selective about cards and I got weepy when I read it. She loved it too and I got a sweet smile in return.
