May is always a special month, and this May is exceptionally full of reasons to celebrate at the Holts. Mitch’s and Chrissy’s graduations provided wonderful opportunities to get together with family and friends we don’t see everyday. Chrissy’s triplet siblings turned 15 this month. And Steve and Chrissy’s wedding anniversary is May 29.
But two other annual May celebrations honor a special wife and mother. Mother’s Day this year was spent in Abilene with our two (three, counting Chrissy) children. Lynn couldn’t have had a better day, being surrounded by children and friends. And in a little over a week, we’ll celebrate Lynn’s birthday…number _____ (you didn’t expect me to tell, did you?).
I am convinced that whatever gifts and praise mothers receive on the second Sunday of every May are minuscule in comparison to what they deserve. That’s especially true of the mother of my sons. I’m glad we get two chances to honor her this month.
Happy Mother’s Day and Birthday, Lynn. May God bless you with many more happy and productive years of life.

Lynn won’t answer you, Angie, but her birthday is the 28th. Send all cash monetary gifts to me and I’ll make sure she gets them…
