12 Days of Thanksgiving

November 17th, 5th Day of Thanksgiving: my mom
I somehow managed to luck out and get the GREATEST MOM EVER!! I am so grateful for my mom and everything she has ever done for me. I would not be who I am today without her. I remember having the greatest childhood with my 4 siblings and 2 fabulous happy parents. She would even go out in the backyard and play 'fruit basket' with us...which involved lots of running around! I don't know how she managed to have 5 kids and still have so much energy to play with all of us! She is truly an amazing loving woman and great example to me. There is nothing she wouldn't do for her family and I hope to be just as great a mother and person as she is.

Wow! Thanks! It is so nice to hear that. I had forgotten about playing fruit basket. That WAS fun, wasn't it?

Oh my gosh! That's right! I completely forgot about fruit basket.
That is why I take my kids to mom's house so much....she'll play with them. I don't have that kind of energy.

We never played fruit basket when I came over. Darn it! I'm just now catching on to your 12 days thing. I'm thinking you're really excited for Christmas.
