♥ MY PATTI ♥
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO U!


Just one more day and my oldest daughter will be 40. She will never be 30 anything ever again! Wow, Patti, how does that make you feel? Well, it makes me feel ancient I tell you what! I can't believe how time just slips by without us knowing it. They say time flies when you're having fun but it's hard to remember all the fun you did have!


I do remember the day you were born. You were so very tiny I couldn't believe you were really real and you were MINE! I was just 18 when you were born. I was still learning life and now suddenly I was also a teacher. I loved my life then. Not that I don't now, but it was great becoming a mommy. I was so in love with the fact that I had my own baby. I guess we take what life God gives us and learn how to deal with it. You had 10 little toes and 10 tiny fingers. So much hair! I felt like I had my own real baby doll. I also remember when you couldn't wait to be 30. Now you can't wait to be 40! You must be nuts to want to be older.
Most people wish we could get younger, not older. Life is so incredibly amazing

I am so proud of you, Patti. In your 40 years you've come a long way. We all had to grow up and make so many decisions. So many choices. Your life began at Camp Lenope. You knew then and there what you wanted to do with the rest of your life. Now look at you. You're very independent... Hmmm I wonder where that trait came from.
You're sensitive, caring, jolly, thick headed at times.You have this desire of wanting to be in charge all the time. You are so like MY mother. But you make me proud to have you as one of MY daughters!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, Patti


Forever Love,
Mom
