Happy Birthday Ma,

You're the only person who knows how to calm me down. The only person who knows why I get angry at the weirdest times, the only person who still loves me through it all.

Growing up by you has been such a wonderful journey. So joyous, so colourful, so beautiful.

Thank you for always looking at me through your honest eyes. Thank you for always sparing me chances to change to be better. Thank you for never giving up on me. Thank you for still believing in the good side of me, even when all else fails.

Thank you for putting me close to God. Thank you for letting me share stories and secrets.

Thank you for pigging out with me on brownies and ice cream. Thank you for all our shopping sprees. Thank you for the manicure and the pedicure sessions. Thank you for the amazing trips around the world.

Thank you for being the best friend I never had. The teacher I always wanted. The sister I could always count on. But most importantly, thank you for being you. And thank you for loving me the way I am.

I don't know what I'd do without you. I don't know where I'll be. You're the only person in this world who loves me at my weakest.

Happy 42nd Birthday. Because I know you don't mind being 42 :) I love you endlessly.
