A simple card can never repay you
for all the ways you have blessed my life.
I am rich because of how much
you have invested in me...
your time, unconditional love,
encouragement, your daily example,
and the sacrifices you have made
through the years for my benefit.
This richness is not measured in dollar signs,
but in the happiness and bond we share.
This is part of your legacy to me.
I am so thankful
that you are not only my mother,
but also my friend!
Happy Birthday!
