I Celebrate the Courage in all Mothers

Today is my birthday and I celebrate the Courage in all mothers everywhere. I really think that if anyone gets a gift, it should be my mom. The photo here is of my beautiful mother, BJ Welch.  I must express my gratitude for all the years of nurturing, support and love I received. I was very fortunate to have had a great childhood. Thank you mom for all your unconditional love and the courage you exhibited throughout your life. Losing family to cancer, AIDS, a drunk driver, heart attacks, etc, has been challenging, but we have grown immensely through the process of life’s events. So I celebrate today for you. Thank you for bringing me safely into being who I am today. I dedicate Living In Courage to you. I love you.

Donald,

Cody and I want to wish you a very Happy Birthday today. Donald is a longtime friend of ours, who is an amazing artist and illustrator. Donald owns Legacy Designs and Publishing, visit at Paper Dolls. We have all been through so much together and share a common bond. We are leaving for your birthday party right now and I was thinking about the years we have all known each other. It has been a wonderful journey. Cody and I are very happy and grateful to be a part of your life. Well, Cody is finally out of the shower (you know how long it takes men to get ready!) so we will be on our way to a fabulous evening with you Donald and many of your lifelong friends. We love you. Deb and Cody
