birthdays are about the good things.

1975 - les & candy
she taught me to wear big hoop earrings and lipstick.
she taught me how to cook.
she taught me how to throw a really good party.
she taught me to laugh loud and hard.
she taught me not to be afraid of the ocean.
she taught me how to speak my mind.
she taught me how to stand up for myself.
she taught me how to cuss (but admittedly, I have taken this to a whole new art form).

happy birthday, mom.

2002 - candy & her grandkids

maybe someday we will really know one another.
because i love you.

i really do.
