The table is set, the lasagnas are ready to be put into the oven, and my family will be arriving shortly to celebrate mom's birthday, which was Wednesday.

I’m wishing you another year
Of laughter, joy and fun,
Surprises, love and happiness,
And when your birthday’s done,

I hope you feel deep in your heart,
As your birthdays come and go,
How very much you mean to me,
More than you can know.

Happy Birthday, Mom. I love you.
