"M" is for...

MOM

Thank you mom for being my best friend,

For sharing diet Dr. Peppers and Cafe

Rio Salads,

For telling me when my bum doesn't look good in a pair of jeans,

For loving my wedding as much as I do,

For being a fabulous cook and passing the tradition on to me,

and for listening to me vent...all the time.

XOXOXO

(Bart's tribute)

I like my mom cuz she is nice, and cute, and helpful, and friendly, and smiley, and she has rosey cheeks. She is grrreat.

Plus she tells me that I'm not crazy and the world isn't out to get me.
She is my only mom - so that makes her even more extra special to me!

THANKS Mom!

The Top 10

What do you think about the new top 10 baby names? FYI, I'm not asking this because I am pregnant or looking for baby names :) I just find it interesting. I have an "original" name, which most people like... or at least they tell me that to my face. Thus, I have always been drawn to different names. If I HAD to chose a name from these lists I would probably go with Madison and Ethan. Please don't be offended if I didn't chose your name or your child's...I love each of you! :)
