Happy Birthday Mom!

February 19th 1961

Here’s to the first person who ever loved me. The first human love I ever felt. My first guide and protection. My first home. My first love.

Mom, I wrote this for you.

Today’s the first time I’ve ever created something and put it out into the world. Anyone can see it, love it, hate it, laugh at it, judge it, critique it, and or critize it. Yet I still feel guided and protected just like my first home.

I chose today because it’s your birthday and I wanted to give something to you. What better gift than the maturation of the seed you gave me many years ago.

So on this your birthday, I dedicate Giving Is Like to you.

Thank you for setting the example and for thinking so highly of me to believe that I too could be a giver. That I too could be what Giving is Like.

Your Giving is Like forever.

Happy Birthday Mom.

I Love and miss you.
