Today my mom turned 65.
I wish I could tell her more than Happy Birthday over the phone.
I can genuinely say that I love my mother a lot. Unlike my father I love her not just because of her paternal relationship to myself.
She is pretty damned amazing.
Some how she raised me alone without any real help from my dad. Put me through Catholic Grammar and High School. Paid for lunches, dance lessons, hair cuts, birthday parties, dance costumes, and lots of other things kids don't really "need" but want.
All at the same time she managed to travel, a lot.
I love her.
I miss her.
I can't wait to see her this weekend.
Completely unrelated. I am an idiot.
