Today was my mother's 58th birthday. On Sunday I turned 29. I'm officially half her age.

She won't see this because she isn't on Nostr, but I want you all to know how much I appreciate her.

There were some years were shit was tough and our relationship wasn't good, but during my 20's she help support me as my body deteriorated. She was there on so many occasions when I had seizures. She's an incredible person, and I'm glad I can say we are close now.

Family isn't a right. It's a privilege. We earned the relationship we have by working on it.

I'll save this note id so I can share it with her one day. If you're seeing this mom, I love you. Thanks for everything. Happy Birthday 🎈

Absolutely beautiful! Happy birthday to your mom!

Reminds me of this quote from a friend;

‘I wish I saw my mother when I was younger with the eyes I have now,

I wish I felt her when I was younger with the heart I have now!’

Family is earned or a weak lie.
