hola que pasa? - a blog post for mom!

Hola, que pasa...
this is the typical way my mom will answer the phone when my sister or I am on the other line.  It's quite humorous because my mom does not speak Spanish, nor is she trying to learn, but she knows that these words will always make us laugh and think of her!  (So...Mom - I believe a good portion of my "randomness" comes from you!)

My mom is a blessing & everything you imagine one to be.  She is a mom, wife, daughter, sister, caretaker, taxi driver, counselor, doctor, cheerleader, tailgater, business worker, party planner, maid, chef, among other things.  (If you have ever encountered Mamma Patton, you know these things are true)!  But more than anything, she is a lover of Jesus Christ, and it shows in how she treats her kids, loves her husband, prays for others, & desires to grow.  I am thankful to have her in my life.

With that said, TODAY is my mom's birthday & I can think of no better way than to honor it than with this song...

You're one year older and wiser
I'm glad to be the big surpriser
You didn't know I knew
Happy Birthday to You!

Love you,
B
