It's a pretty good day when.....

.... you pin this on your Pinterest board, and your child clicks the 'like' link...


One of the greatest things about having your children grow up is the  
relationship transition from parent TO friend... of course they'll always be your child, but what grandiose and unabashed joy to call them friend!

For Christmas one year I embroidered the saying 
'My Mother, My Sister, My Friend' for my mom...



Hands down, this adorable and amazing girl IS 
'My Daughter, My Sister, My Friend'... 
and I honestly couldn't have better in all three.

I love you more than life itself, Sar Bear... 
YOU ARE LIFE and everything that is wonderful
and good and beautiful and marvelous!
Thank you.  <3

Ally got Alaska yesterday. Guess I better get out more.

And now looking at it, I just saw it in a whole new way.... thanks + forgiving... instead of, or in addition to thanks + for + giving Interesting.... wouldn't it be awesome if we all could just forgive others of their shortcomings and be grateful for them as they are and accept them at face value instead.... the way we hope they look at us? Today I think of so many things.... What comes to mind: St. George - spent many Thanksgivings there while growing up and always spent time horseback riding over that weekend 4-day school vacation Dang!  In the middle of making this list I just remembered I forgot to make the Corn Soup... ugh... The 'Turkey Bowl' LeSueur Pumpkin Crunch Torte... I made a half this year which is baking (hopefully... something's up with my oven) as I type.... and man oh man, it sure smells good!
