Happy Birthday to my Best Friend!

Today is my mom's 41st birthday but I feel like she is only getting younger. She is the most incredible person I know and is the most influential person in my life. Here is some of the words of wisdom and life lessons she has passed on to me.

1. Family should be your best friends. They will never betray you
2. Never chase boys, especially the ones who don't like you
3. Always make your bed in the morning
4. Prayer makes all things possible
5. Always think before you speak
6. There is much value in kind words
7. Be nice to everyone, but trust very few
8. Never drink milk after eating fish
9. First impressions last forever
10. Be aware of your actions, you never know who is watching
11. Always eat soup with a tablespoon and yogurt with a teaspoon
12. A husband must be a protector and a provider
13. The cutest boys sometimes have the worst personalities
14. Others should always be your first priority, its not about YOU
15. The best of lessons are learned through the hardest of times


I love you, mom. Thank you for everything. Happy Birthday!
