Happy Birthday Mom!

061

The holiest words my tongue can frame,
The noblest thoughts my soul can claim,
Unworthy are to praise the name
More precious than all other.
An infant, when her love first came,
A [woman], I find it still the same,
Reverently I breathe her name,
The blessed name of mother

-George Griffith Fether

You both are so very lucky to live close enough to see each other every day! It's wonderful to have beautiful daughters that are also your best friends!
