Happy Birthday Lisa

Today my baby girl turns 28 years old. I couldn't be more proud of who she is as a grown woman. She's in her final year of grad school and starting her internship at a clinic. She's beautiful and smart. That's what I always tell her. I wouldn't say it if it weren't true.

If I was living nearby I would be preparing her favorite meal - cream cheese chicken and baking her favorite C*A*K*E (since she was a little kid we would spell it out and it just stuck). It's times like these I wish I could say, "Beam me up Scotty."

Even though I can't be with her today, I'm comforted in the fact that she's surrounded by good friends who will make her feel special and help her celebrate her day.

Lisa we love you. We're sorry we can't be with you but in our hearts you are firmly placed today. You're on our minds all day long. Have an fabulous day. You're an awesome young lady.
