Today is a special day...
24 years ago today my life changed...
for the better...
i became a mother...
it's all i ever wanted to be when i "grew up"
today is Meg's birthday...
my girl is 24...
where did the time go?
just like that she grew to be a woman...
my little tomboy girl grew into a beautiful, stunning, smart, caring, sarcastic, dry humored woman...
i am blessed to call her my daughter...
she is on loan from God...
she is proof that he loves me...
to give me such a gift...
i am lucky to call her my friend...
my best friend...
we spend a lot of time together...
we often say the same exact thing at the same exact time...
we are alike in so many ways...
and different too...
she is a grown woman and yet she is my gil...
i love you...
i am proud of the woman you have become...
no matter what, or where you are you are always with me...
in my heart...
you are a part of me, and i am a part of you...
happy happy birthday gil...
love...
mom
ooooo, love this, m!
love you both!

I love how you honor your daughter!
I feel the same way about my two girls and am amazed by the gift of being their mom.
Enjoy your day with your gil! (Love that name)
