Happy Birthday Nana!!

Mom, you're such a kindred spirit.  You're 'of the of the house of Joseph,' as Anne of Green Gables would say.  I love that you appreciate diversity, culture, spunk, and that you have amazing insights about how to live life.  You've been a great spiritual guide and example to me.  You tirelessly serve others, not just your family.  The family reunion is a great example of an incredible event you've helped put together in service to our clan.  I love that you've become a close friend and that I feel like we have grown together, both as friends and in individual ways.  It's nice to be close at heart.  I love you!!

The thing I like best about Mom is how she works so hard to keep the family together.  She is a real example of putting family first no matter what.  Mom always finds a way to make herself available for the kids and the grandkids.  Happy Birthday Mom!!

She is so willing to give of herself to help out her family and anyone else who may need it.  She also brings awesome ideas and really knows how to make a get-together happen successfully.

I've always admired Mom's drive and determination to accomplish her goals.  She is inspiring!  I also really appreciate her support and advice for whatever I need help with.  I've talked to her about all sorts of challenges I'm going through, and she always has good insight and is so willing to help me out in any way she can. It's amazing how committed she is to her family. Happy birthday Mom!!! Hope you have a great day.  Love you tons!

Happy Birthday Nana!!  Of course with cousin camp just recently passed I must say I love what a trouper you were with all those little guys!!  Oliver and Ben had such a fun time.  I think that's something I really admire about you - your ability to throw great parties/camps/get togethers.  I also love how eager you always seem to be to open your home to others which is something I know takes a lot of work.  I also really love your dedication to family and willingness to help me out with the boys (and Ruby)  Hope you have a great day!

Happy Birthday Nana!! One of the things I admire most about you is that all of your children have turned out well centered in the Gospel.  It is a rare thing and a testament to having the right priorities as a parent.  Grateful for all the love and affection you show your kids and especially your grandkids.  We all adore you.  Have a great day and a great year!

Happy Birthday Nana, we all love and appreciate you so much. It was a beautiful gift to give the boys the experience of cousin camp. We know it takes a lot of work and energy to put that together and make it so fun and the boys really treasure it. Your priorities are really in the right place and it's so kind of you to make time in your schedule to help us all out as much as you do. Hope you have a wonderful day and a very special year. Love,
Melissa
