you look just like Maddie. Anyhow. So sweet. I love your mom just by reading the reasons you love her. Sweet. Happy mothers day "Boss".
Dotto!!! I love your MOM too... HAHAHA
Ditto I guess is spelled like this, not like on my last post. So much for your uneducated sister.
No wonder you're so great.
What a cute little Heidi!
Dotto that!
I guess I need to explain the pictures because my own mother didn't get it. The first one in black and white is my Mom when she was little. The other one is her a few years ago holding my niece Katie.
Oh I thought the little girl was you. =o) I'm sure you were cute too. Or maybe you're hiding them for a reason. Ha!
How's the BoM challenge coming along?
That is such a sweet tribute Heidi!
And thanks for your comment on my blog...you are so nice!!! That made my day :)
