Today the sun shines brighter than before,
Because a queen was born on this day,
Major Mama Cate, a gift to our lives,
A mother whose love always shows the way.
You carried us through seasons of growth,
With patience, wisdom, and gentle care,
When we doubted ourselves, you believed for us,
You reminded us we were destined to dare.
Pre-Chorus
Your words healed wounds we could not see,
Your counsel lifted broken dreams,
You taught us life, you shaped our paths,
More than a mother, more than it seems.
Chorus
Happy birthday, Major Mama Cate,
A mother, a mentor, our guiding light,
You build lives, you raise destinies,
You turn our darkness into sight.
Happy birthday, Major Mama Cate,
Today we celebrate your grace,
May joy surround you, peace overflow,
And favor follow you all your days.
You teach with love, you lead with truth,
A life coach with a mother’s heart,
You see the end from the very start,
And help us rise when life feels hard.
Your laughter heals, your presence comforts,
Your strength inspires us to grow,
Major Mama Cate, we honor you,
On your birthday, we just want you to know.

We love you today and always
