it's over, but never will be

i never did understand how sending a text message to a landline worked
but i'm really glad that it did

"happy mother's day. i love you."

you are the most incredible person in my life
and i'm not saying that because of mother's day
or because it's something that i'm supposed to say
i'm saying it because there is no better way
you have encouraged me to be the best person that i can be
and i know i will
you know i will
every decision that i make has been supported by who?
my mother
by you.

i hope that i am a remarkable mother
because i'd really like to keep up the tradition
i am so lucky
and i am so thankful - every single day
to have you in my life
to have you as my mom

there are so many things that i can list
so many things that compliment you but never do justice
we have grown together and learned from each other
everything that we possibly can
oh, but we learn more each day
because each day is another day together
and we're both a pain in the ass
but we're both completely worth it

you are my best friend
and that will never change

here's to being a mom - my mom

i couldn't have asked for a trade
not even with one of those tv moms
i do love orange juice, though.
