My mom would be 58 today. She was born November 13, 1952. It was not unusual for her birthday to fall on a Friday....Friday the 13th, none the less. She always joked about Friday the 13th being her birthday. I also remember my mom always being pleased that all three of her children were born on a Friday. I figured that this was just a convenient day of the week for two very busy parents. I never really checked this little fun fact out, but today....in honor of my mother, I did. I used this birthday calculator. Sure enough, we were all born on Friday. I thought there was a chance she was born on a Friday, but no....my mom came into this world on a Thursday.
She always loved this little poem. In fact, when she had my youngest sister, someone gave her a little porcelain box with these words on it.

Amy, I love this post. Your mom would have loved it also.
A very touching tribute. I'm sorry to hear of your loss.

I loved this. I lost my Mother this past Mother's Day and this post brought tears to my eyes. I hope you don't mind if I steal your idea and put my list on my blog (if I ever get it going again).
