Hey Mom!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY! Who would think that you're only celebrating your 25th anniversary of your 25th birthday? Although we cannot all be home with you to celebrate (except for Amy because she is obviously the 'alpha' child), we are definitely thinking about you and we wish you nothing but the absolute best!
You have taught all four of us incredible lessons - lessons about hard work, commitment, perseverance, optimism, generosity and sacrifice. You've done an incredible job as our Mom (and wife ... for Dad, obviously) and we want you to know how much we appreciate everything you do for us, both in the past, in the 'now' and what will come in the future.
We are all thrilled to see you get back into substitute teaching and engage yourself in your work with children throughout the community, and furthermore children throughout our extended community, such as Detroit, with your volunteer work through Oak Pointe Church.
Again, sorry that we all cannot be with you, but we're thinking about you, we miss you and we love you VERY MUCH! Enjoy the day, the weekend and the year as a whole, and we cannot wait to all get back together and celebrate your birthday in a seriously belated - fun filled - way!
Love,
Jeff, Amy, Steve and Dad (and Bo, Shiloh, Turtle, Moe, Guinea Pig

WOW Steve! What can I say? Your MSU bill is out of control!!! Just as this incredible gift is. I'm not sure which makes me laugh or cry more, the pictures or the writings from all of you. I am blessed to be a part of this family and I'm proud to be your Mom!!
Thank you so very much. I may have to work less at CVMedia and more on the blog!
Love and miss you...
XOXOXOXO
Mom
