Today is a special day. See that lady in the middle of my sister and I, that’s Mom and today is her birthday! 

Without even being consciously aware I pick up my cell and call speed dial #2 [only second to #1 being default voicemail]. It is my direct link to my Mom. We talk on the phone sometimes 6 or 7 times a day. She is my other half. She knows me all to well! Andrea and I would consider ourselves pretty blessed to be able to call our Mom our best friend. Between the three of us, more affectionately known as the “3 musketeers”, we share it all. We tell each other everything! The highs and the lows. All of our smiles, tears, laughs, joys, celebrations, struggles, problems, and usually birthdays. Not only that, we share SO many memories…from day trips to Atlanta time and time again to cramming begging the dressing room attendant to allow 3 people in a one person dressing room. Somehow we just cannot get enough of each other.

This year we will not be in the same place, but we’ll celebrate together in spirit! So this post goes to you Mom,

“HOPE YOU HAVE A VERY HAPPY BIRTHDAY!”

Love Ya Always, Jewels
