[He will] bestow on [those who mourn] a crown of beauty instead of ashes, the oil of joy instead of mourning, and a garment of praise instead of a spirit of despair. They will be called oaks of righteousness, a planting of the LORD for the display of his splendor. - Isaiah 61:3 NIV (paraphrased)

Happy Birthday Mom!
Yesterday was mom's birthday. Celbrating it made me think back over the years, she's taught me a lot and put up with a lot from me. Our relationship hasn't always been smooth, but I'm glad she's my mom!
Thank you, Anna! I've loved you always since I knew you only as a flutter in my belly and especially since I first held you and Dad let me name you! You've always been a beautiful treasure to me. Thank you for all you did to make my birthday special!! The roses are beautiful!! I love you forever. Mom
