Happy Birthday, Ma!!

Hot Mama :-)
Ma & Papa

Today is my Ma's birthday. I am not going to tell you how old, but you probably wouldn't believe it even if I did. I don't know where to begin to tell you what an INCREDIBLE Godly woman that she is. I know I had a novel yesterday, so todays will be a little shorter :-) I really don't know how she does all that she does. She has 11 grandchildren, well more if you count the out-laws (speaking of she loves them as much as she loves her own grandkids) and she has 11 great-grandchildren and if you ask any one of us who Ma's favorite is, they would all say that they are. (Of course, we all know that I am really and truely the favorite)! I think that takes one special person to make each of us feel that we are number 1 to her. She always has time to listen to you (unless someone is beeping in on the other line :-)) and she was always the one that stuck a little money in your pocket for gas or ice cream or whatever. She has the most patience of any one that I know and she raised 2 of the best Moms in the world. My Mom and Auntie! They all have a heart for serving other people, and they are pretty much the most selfLESS people that I know. I have some great examples to live up to when I am blessed with kiddos of my own. All that to say, Happy Birthday, MA! You only have about 55 more birthdays to go. I love you so much and am so blessed to call you my MA!!
