Top ten things I love about My Mother
1) When she and her sisters all laugh together, their shoulders all move up and down at the exact same time and they all have the exact same helpless look on their faces and it's one of the funniest sites that Katemeister, LisaJayne and I have ever seen
2) She calls everyone "lovey", even if she's only just met them
3) She truly believes that our dog is her fourth child and will let him get away with just about anything
4) She's one of the most generous people I've ever met, practically ready to mortgage the house if it means she can help someone
5) She's also one of the most hospitable people I've ever met, welcoming every single random person that her children have brought home or that Rotary has dumped on her with open arms (and a cup of tea and a "Hello, lovey", of course)
6) She believes that drinking hot tea in the summer time actually cools her down
7) She also believes that tea is the ultimate solution to every single one of life's tribulations
8) She's like a momma bear protecting her cubs, charging at the slightest threat to her kids (her decision to phone one child's ex and bitch them out being a case in point)
9) She watches Desperate Housewives with me every Sunday, even when she's pooped
10) She is completely convinced that her children are the greatest people to ever live in the history of the entire universe, even when our rooms aren't clean - with that kind of faith behind us, how can we ever go wrong?
HAPPY BIRTHDAY MOM!!
