Dear Mother😁

Uncle Jayakar's card

What Our Mama Does

She stops us when we try to fight,

She kisses us before bed at night,

She reads to us every day,

Before that we read, sing and pray.

Everyday us she will scold,

When we're naughty and don't do what we're told,

She is a great helper to Daddy,

Who spanks us when we are bratty.

So our Mommy is the best,

And kinder and lovelier than the rest,

Thank you Mommy for all you've done,

You are caring, loving, sweet and fun.

Cameron gave me a new Kindle for my reading pleasure and a faster tool to aid educating our kids. My Dad prayed for me over the phone and so did my sister. Pastor Todd prayed after the service. A sweet friend made me a delicious lemon poppy seed cake. It was a beautiful birthday, filled with thoughtful gifts, thankfulness and joy for all God's blessings of last year, filled with hope for the new.
