Happy birthday mommy. I’m thankful for you, and I miss you so much. Being away from you is hard, but it’s allowed me to see how closely we truly are and how blessed I really am. You’re my best friend, and I wish I could be with you today. I miss our kitchen talks. I miss you having all the answers. I miss juicing orange juice. I miss going hiking. I miss drinking coffee after dinner. Mom I even miss working with you, but most of all I miss your hugs!

Mommy I’m starting to see you in me 

They way you laugh 

I laugh that way too 

The way you move 

I move that way too 

 

You’re a prayer warrior 

And I am starting to be one too 

You love the Lord

And I too because of you 

 

The way you care for others 

I catch myself caring too 

You seek others out 

The Lord has me do that too 

 

I looked in the mirror 

And I saw you

My smile is your smile 

Mommy I’m literally you  

 

I am a creation from you 

I am here thanks to you 

I am honored to be your daughter 

I am blessed you’re my mother  

 

Mommy I’m starting to see you in me 

The way you love 

I love that way too 

The way you strive 

I strive that way too 

     I love you mom. I miss you mom. I cherish you mom. I am grateful for you mom. Mom I am thankful to have been raised by you! You love deeply, and you live courageously. I can’t wait to become more like you. My dream is to one day be half the woman you are! Thank you for being my mom. Thank you for keeping your eyes on the Lord. Thank you for loving me so well. Happy Birthday mommy.
