the best places

Recently a few of my friends lost parents, and that thought crossed my mind today because today is my mom's birthday. So, as I usually note such momentous events with a blog entry, I thought about what to say.
Thing is, I find myself in an enviable position. Everything I might have said about my mother, I've already said to my mother. She's awesome. I tell people at work about my mom, and they have requested that I bring her for show and tell. When someone has a mysterious medical diagnosis, I call her from work for a consult. She babysits my dogs and they don't want me anymore.
Happy Birthday mom, and I hope it was great. I feel really lucky to find myself in one of the best places we could ever be - good friends.
