What a Teacher!

Raegan gave me this figurine for my last birthday. It represents two friends who love each other very much, and are working together to keep their friendship alive. It means a lot to me because it truly shows the life Raegan and I are living at this point in time. I'm still mother and she is still my daughter, but we are two adults who share a very precious friendship and who also live together.
There are two thing that I have learned about her that will never change. First, she is a complete perfectionist. If she thinks something she has done is not perfect, she will do it over and over again until it is. Second, she is very stubborn. If she is set in a decision, you can't talk her out of it no matter what.



There is one more thing about her that I want known. She is the best Speech Language Pathologist anyone could ever hope to find. She never takes a break from preparing for her kids to doing the endless paper work that is involved. My spare bedroom has shelves from floor to ceiling of things she has bought with her own money that will help make her teaching more exciting, as well, as, fun. There are times she will spend endless amounts just to help one child who is struggling.

Why am I telling you all of this? Because today is here birthday, and I feel so blessed to have been chosen to be her mother. We have spent so many precious moments together. Thank you Raegan for being a wonderful daughter and an inspiration to me. You continue to teach me what it means to be a true friend, as well as, a better person.
