Guess what today is....

This is Hannah. I'm hijacking my mom's blog on account of a very special occasion...

It's her birthday today! Make sure you all wish her an absolutely aaaahmazing day! I know that my mother is so grateful for all of you, and that our whole family has been blessed by you all. Give her lots of love, sweet blogging friends!

I'm so excited to celebrate her birthday, not ONLY because she's pretty much the most incredible, amazing, and down-right AWESOME person that I know. But because I love her. A lot. I am so blessed by my mom. She is...

Smart

Silly
and not afraid
to be

Loving
always

an encourager
and a picker-up-er
in the tough times
and in the good ones

a friend
and a mentor
and a mom

a beautiful woman
inside
and definitely out
(MOM, don't you dare protest!) ;)

COMPLETELY in love with
Jesus
and filled with faith
for Him

A mother of seven
crazy kids
and she deals with the
chaos
very well

a newly gluten-free chef
who makes some amazing
lemon bars

someone who loves to
play the piano
and is very good at it

an incredible cook
who keeps the house clean
the laundry going
and all of us kiddos
clothed, educated, fed,
and loved

someone who does
what she has to do
and doesn't complain

a fighter
for her family

a lover of
scrabble and
catan

an incredible writer
who pens (er, types)
breathtaking
words

my dear, amazing,
completely wonderful,
sweet mother
who I am so grateful for.

Happy Birthday, Momma.

I love you. ♥
