Tonight, just before midnight (EST) as we are all preparing to welcome in the new year, Washington, D.C. will be commemorating another fantastic event. The last baby born there in 19__ will be celebrating her birthday!
That baby was my mom. And yes, she is documented as the last baby born that year in our nation's capital. And what a gift she has been to the world. There is no one smarter, more dedicated, or more compassionate in my life. She has a heart of gold and if she loves you, hold on and be prepared to be loved for a lifetime.
Happy birthday, Ma. When you tell me how proud you are of me, when you tell me that I am a good wife and mother, all I can say is I'm everything I am because you loved me.
Now party like it's your burf-day. ;)

Awww, that made me teary. Happy birthday, Sharon's Mom! You must be an amazing woman, judging by the daughter you raised.
Such kind and generous words, Sharon
Thanks, Christy for being such an awesome friend to Sharon.
I teared up too! Happy belated birthday Sharon's mom. And I have to agree that you raised one amazing woman who has gone on to raise amazing kids! We had the pleasure of meeting the whole family over the summer.
What a beautiful tribute! I did not know that she was the LAST baby born in that city, that year. Happy, happy birthday indeed.
Aww, that is so sweet Sharon. Your mom is very lucky to have you as a daughter. Happy Belated birthday to your mom!!
