Happy Birthday, Teri!!

                  TIME FOR ANOTHER BIRTHDAY!!


Today is my daughter's birthday. Teri is now another year older, but I don't like to think of it with the word "old" used. Birthdays should be about happy days with fun and surprises. It's taken me about 30 minutes to type this much! I can't type very well since my hospital stay and I know now I should have started this about 20 days ago! I hope she will get this as I'm not sending a gift and this has to do.

Teri, I love you so much and miss you a whole lot! I think of all the times I rocked you and sang to you. I loved doing that and many times when I think of it I end up crying. I read so many articles about mothers and daughters and the times they spend together. But I don't live close to either one of my daughters, so I won't be doing any of that. Maybe I'll just end up watching "Law&Order" as I know at least one of them will be doing the same. I am so proud of you and what you have become. You are beautiful, smart and so funny! It is amazing to think that you came out of me with your dad's help. We did a good job. Hope you have a wonderful day today.
