Hi Mom

Happy birthday Mom! I sent you a card before your birthday. That is an improvement from past years.

I have told you how proud I am to have you as my mom and make sure you know how much I love you. I smile that you are still playing Bubble Bobble on my old Nintendo. I am glad that you have moved onto Super Mario Brothers for variety, and are still interested in playing the same levels over and over.  I giggle when Dad tells you to turn off your game. Then you proceed to turn off the TV and leave the game system on. And when you call, it makes me laugh that you tell me to go back playing my game.

I admire you most for making the time to help other people.  I am fortunate you are not only mom but friend too. Congratulation on your rose taking a first place prize in the fair! I hope you have plans to enter next year.  I love you mom and happy birthday.
