Happy Happy Birthday Momma!
 
I wish I could be there to celebrate you today, but I feel your absence and miss you all the time.  So even though I am not there, I want to say all the way from India that you are the most wonderful mother.  You have covered me in prayer my whole life.  You have prayed me out of pits and darkness.  You have warred for my soul, and I owe so much to you.  You have been a living testament to me of what it looks like to love others well.  Observing your love and loyalty to friends, family, and perfect strangers has consistently challenged me to be a better person. 

On this day remember who you are.  You are beautiful and anointed with gifts of compassion and intercession.  You are set apart and you have raised daughters that are set apart.  We both see you as a prayer warrior full of strength and giftings, and we are so proud you are our mother.  Believe the truth of who you are today and shine!
