Happy Birthday Mamma Holt!!
O.K. that made me cry, how thoughtful of you Annie, you are my best friend as well. This is just what I needed to read tonight. It was such a beautiful gift from your heart and something I will treasure forever. This has been the most trying year of trials I have ever endured in my life and it helped me to know this life is good and I have served what I was sent here to do, be your mom, I love you sweetie thank's for all the wonderful times we get to spend together:)
Whoops, I forgot something, I do love Ryan like my son and I love the two handsome little boys that you both have blessed my life with. They will probably be the only two grandson's I will ever get :)
Your mom is awesome that's for sure. And yes she is the best cook - I love everything she makes and I'm sure I've only had a small sampling compared to you guys. :)
Oh, and if she could teach my mom to fold my laundry that would be awesome. haha
