Birthdays Galore!

Just an FYI - Because Adam and I lead a rather uneventful life, I decided that during the first year of my blogging journey I would be giving birthday shout outs to all those nearest and dearest to me. That way the blog is being updated on a fairly regular basis and let's face it, it's nice to get recognized on your birthday and even better to be giving that recognition if you ask me! I love writing the birthday blogs!

Today's birthday blog goes out to the one and only Janine Blaesser!

I'm so lucky to have a Mother-in-law who I respect and admire so much. This woman really does have a servant's heart. As most mother's do, she is always putting others before herself. She works so hard and makes everyone around her feel equally loved and important. Every time we go anywhere, or she comes to visit Janine is always ready to take on the things no one else wants to do. For example, when she was here in May for Adam's graduation, she ironed just about everything in Adam's closet! Who does that? I hate ironing and so does Adam, so it was a treat! Whenever there's a birthday or graduation coming up, this woman takes charge and makes sure she has everything cleaned just right, the food bought and prepared so everyone else can have a good time. She has done everything she can to see that her children succeed and when you look at her 3 kids, it's amazing what they've all accomplished.

Ever since I met Janine she has welcomed me with open arms and embraced me. I never felt like she didn't like me or would reject me from the family. She's so talented in so many ways and loves to have fun. I am so grateful for her loving support and constant praise. I hope today she enjoys being celebrated!

Happy Birthday! We love you!

Janine is a great cook and party planner

Adam loves and respects his mother greatly - and that has made him a better man!
