Happy Birthday Mom.

PLAY.
I think my mom probably taught me how to play. And I think she encourages me to play even more now that I am a momma too.
She knows it is needed. And will never make you feel guilty for it.
Thanks for that Mom.
When I snapped this picture of her and Lily I was so, so happy.
1. because mom doesn't usually willingly let you take her picture.
AND
2. Lily was a gift to me that I didn't expect. With her I have more focus on things I missed out on with my first two babies.
I am not waiting to get that photo later. Later may not have ever come.
{When I snapped a photo of my mom holding Lily that weekend. I realized I never got one like that before.}


Happy Birthday Mom. Thanks for all the things you did when I wasn't looking.
And look how gorgeous you look!
