Happy Birthday Mom!

Today my Mommy is 50 years young. She is the best Mom anyone could ever ask for. She has always cheered me on, supported me, and been an amazing friend my entire life. She is beautiful, spiritual, and looks for the best in others. Mom I love you, I hope all of your birthday dreams come true!
Here are some cool things that I love about her!

She is ever the optimist and likes to say, "It will all work out in the end." We tease her about how much she uses that phrase.

No matter how many times my Dad tells the same joke she still laughs! She thinks he is the most hilarious guy in the world.

She never quits. My Mom puts her best into everything she does.

She has been known to drop a few swears, and here is a direct quote from her. "I wasn't this perverted until I met you guys!" (I love that one!)

She loves Tyler like he is her own son. I used to call my Mom when Tyler and I would fight. Her response was something like this, "what did you do wrong, were you bossing him around?"
I realized she would usually take Tyler's side. (Now I keep out fights to myself)

She puts me in my place. When I whine she listens and then gives me the “it will all work out in the end.”

She reads the Book of Mormon twice a year, and the Bible once a year. She has done this every year for the past 12ish plus years. She is amazing.

She loves Chevy Suburbans. I would buy her one right now if I could.

She takes care of others. Often times she will be making dinner for someone, or helping someone, or visiting teaching for 6 hours staright.

She has the best sense of humor. She is fun to be around, fun to talk to, and generally just fun. She loves life!

She has put up with 5 crazy peacock children! That alone should send her straight to heaven!

Happy Birthday Gwen! I can't believe you're 50! I still remember when you turned 30! Someday I will get your present up to your house and install it.
