So, today is my thirty-eighth birthday. I am blessed with an amazing husband and best friend, a great start to a killer tattoo collection, four of the cutest dogs on the planet, and a slot to pursue a wine degree! Not too shabby for a tiny town gal…
Thank you to everyone that has supported me through it all…especially my mom, who I was lucky enough to have with me for thirty two of those years. She gave me the backbone to do what I do, no matter WHAT that is. She hated my tattoos, loved me unconditionally, and always spoke her mind. When she was very ill, she liked to rest on the enclosed porch of her house. There was a robin & her nest, set up in the bushes right off of the deck. She told me every time i saw a robin when she was gone, that I should think of her. I had one bounce around on the window sill first thing this morning, a happy spring hello for mom’s little pixie!
I’m a lucky woman all around…See you on the road!!!
Such cute pictures of you and your mom! Hugs from Prague!
Deedee, What a great story. With your Gramma it would be the cat bird, so if you see one and it’s with a robin, you’ll know they are together. Have a Great B-DAY, and Uncork New York!!!
Wow, I didn’t know that!! I’ll keep my eyes open, thanks Uncle Jim 🙂
