My mom and Arizona's birthday

I was in fourth grade Mrs. Silva class.

Tiny with big green eyes.

And instead of Valentine's Day celebrating in that class we were celebrating Arizona birthday.

Arizona's known as the Sweetheart State because we received our state of February 14, 1912.

So was the night before Valentine's Day and we just finished filling out our valentines, my sister and I.

I can remember getting ready for bed and then it hit me.

I had volunteered my mom to bake the cake for the party.

And not just any cake she was to decorate the cake like the Arizona flag.

And I remember telling her this and yes she was mad but she went and made that cake.

And she took us to school the next morning with that cake which was a plus because it was raining.

And that is the beginning of the memories of how my mom always saved me no matter what crazy thing I signed her up for our needed her to get me out of.

So happy Statehood day.

My mama is amazing.
