Thanks for being both sweet and honest! And hey, there's one of my pictures, the first I've seen. I wondered if they all turned out so bad that you weren't sharing.
I really like that picture of mom. Can I get a copy?
Me, too, no all of it: great picture, need a copy. Great words and truth about all those things that are Mom's fault.
what a beautiful picture of mom. I want one too:)
That's a lovely tribute, and I love the pictures. Did you know you and your mom have the same smile? Probably. Well, now I know, too!
Lindsay, that was the sweetest tribute. It's easy to draw the focus in on us now that we're in the thick of motherhood, but it's good to remember that we come from great stock.
Oh, and that is a great picture of your mom. She's beautiful!
