I’ve found so many pictures of this woman’s beautiful smile! I think our whole family has been complimented on our smiles and I think it comes from Mom!
I’ve found pictures of her laughing that just make me laugh too because I can hear her. One of the things I just love about Mom is that she's so free with sharing her love for her kids. Very rarely does an ever-so-long update email from Mom go by without her expressing how much she appreciates us and loves us.
I have also loved how Mom and Dad express their love for each other. It helped me as a child, to know that Mom and Dad loved each other, whether it was a hello kiss or a pat on the bum. I loved it.
I have a new-found respect for Mom. She popped out 7 kids 10 years, and I'm just assuming here, that actually giving birth was the easy part.
My Mom was a very busy woman, but I think she did a great job with all of us. I don’t know who could make it out of raising us all with her mind still in tact, but as long as that smile and laugh stick around with her, I think we’ll keep her around too! Happy Birthday Mommy!

She is beautiful...I think I take after her!
Wow, that last picture of her is absolutely GORGEOUS! Even on my best days I pale in comparison!
By the way, you may not remember me, I was Natalie's roommate at Ricks. I found your blog via a link on natalie's blog!
Of course I remember you! You came to Weiser for someone's wedding, and didn't Natalie break her nose at yours? Who could forget?
