Today Mom turns fifty. It’s an amazing number if you think about it. Whole art movements have come into fashion and fizzled out in fifty years. Families have been born, fractured, and reborn in that span of time. Loves are found. Goals are met. And when I look back at fifty, I hope that I am as successful as my Mother. She’s the most amazing specimen of womanhood, both strong and emotional, fierce and vulnerable, flawed and perfect. She’s my mom, and I’ve been blessed.

Happy Birthday Momma!
