I can't believe how lucky I am!

       I have the best mom in the world! There's just no two ways about it! If only I had all day to tell you about her! I sometimes forget how much she knows and wishes to teach me! I can be soooo stupid! She has been here for me my whole life and I've always known she would never leave me! This has given me so much comfort! I know for a fact I would not be the person I am today if not for my faithful, patient Mom! I haven't always been the most wonderful daughter, but she still took care of me everyday and loved me, and sheltered me from so much pain. I'm so thankful for her.
      One of my favorite memories of my mom is every night before going to bed, she would pray for me, and every morning she would wake me up with a joyful "Rise and Shine!". She helps me see everyday as a gift, a new day! I'm so lucky to have the best mom in the world! I hope I'm just like her!
      Yesterday was I mom's birthday so my sisters and I got to make her a special dinner. We made grilled pizza! It was sooooo good. I also made my mom her favorite dessert,Keylime Pie . Happy Birthday Mom!

 This is the best ever Key Lime Pie! Soooo easy and very rewarding! Perfectly full of flavor, and it has that zesty zing to it! I hope you try this recipe! You won't be sorry!!! (The only change I did was I made a graham cracker crust instead of the pastry shell.)
