Today I have to send out Happy Birthday greetings to my Mom. I don't know if she reads this blog (and maybe, considering some of the content, I wouldn't want her to!) but I thought it was important to send out birthday vibes. It also give me the chance to share this old pic of her - she is about 19 - and freak everyone out with how much I look like her. I still do. My mother is an amazing person. Her life was completely different from mine (and that is, admittedly, a challenge to our relationship now) but I am always inspired by her strength, intelligence and generosity. I don't think I have met anyone who knows my mom without feeling some impact from her. She is coming to visit for a week in January - look for the updates then!
