Wow, I really can't wrap my mind around my mom turning 60.
She is ageless to me.
Some things I admire and love about her:
My mother loves to work outside and get her hands dirty- planting, trimming, hauling.
I have always loved her hands, they are strong working hands.
She loves horses.
She loves growing things- creating beauty.
She loves the mountains.
She works out to an old VHS tape while wearing a sweat band on her forehead.

She is practical, never high maintenance. She is a do-it-yourself kind of gal.
She is not into clothes, shopping, pampering---she is a tomboy at heart.
She can fix almost anything and loves the process of "figuring it out."
I love when she is truly nervous (which does not happen often)
because she develops a bit of a Southern/cowgirl accent.

She does not talk about people, she prefers to talk about ideas.
She loves good manners and class.

She loves reading.
She raised 7 children in some difficult circumstances.
It would be very hard to offend her, she is very good-natured.
She would never go get a frozen yogurt, she prefers ice cream.
Loves butterfingers, junior mints, popcorn balls, peanut brittle, and fire hot cinnamon candy.
She loved being a mother and we felt that as her children.
For that, I am so grateful. Because of her example,
I never doubted that I would love being a mother too.
