Happy Birthday to my mom


My mom moved out of her house almost 2 years ago. She, Trisha, & Ryan moved into an apartment for a month, then Trisha bought her house. They moved into Trisha's house while Tyler was building my moms. Trisha's house was too small to fit all their stuff in, so they lived in a crowded mess for almost 2 years. My mom moved into her house in Nov. She didn't finish unpacking because Ryan was still painting everything. He finally finished painting it just before my grandpa passed away last month. My mom still didn't unpack though because she was busy helping Trisha moved all her stuff in this month. Anyhow, she was excited to finally finish unpacking this week, (since she had Spring break off). After 2 years of living in messes & chaos, she was excited to finally get things organized & invite people over to see her cute new house.
Today she woke up to 4 inches of water throughout her basement. Tyler thinks that some areas had up to 10+ inches. Needless to say, her house is a mess again. I feel so bad for her. It got all her furniture & a bunch of boxes that hadn't been unpacked yet. She had just unpacked her favorite books that had been boxed up for 2 years, and it got all those too. Her floors are ruined. :( I wish I could say her day got better, but it got worse. MUCH worse :(
I hope things turn around for her soon. Sorry mom! I don't know why bad things always happen to you on your birthday & mother's day.

Did I mention that when I asked her what she wanted for her birthday... she said she just wanted some help getting her house put together.
