We ate a delicious meal, talking and laughing until our bellies were full. Mom even got to enjoy her favorite dessert, homemade chocolate eclair dessert. Additionally while we were eating lunch, she got to see some of her high school friends. Many of her friends said, "It is so nice you can have your children with you today." She filled with pride as she realized that all of her children were in one place.
She has given so much time and support to her children. For 20+ years she has spent an immeasurable amount of time being a "room mom," reading us books, or helping us with homework. She has sat through countless dance recitals and sports games. Volleyball, basketball, soccer, softball, track and field, even bowling. My parents attended most of my home games when I played a sport in college! She has withstood ceremonies, spelling bees, graduations. She has always tried to support us through the mountain tops and the valleys of life. She has always been our number one fan.
So much of who I am today is because of my Mom and my family. May she always know that she is loved.
