The Best Mom in the Entire World





I couldn't let the actions of my wonderful Mom go unnoticed. So this ones for you Mom. As a kid growing up, I was amazed at my Mom's abilities. I'd call her from a friends house telling her we were all coming over and miraculously the house would be spotless and a plate of cookies are brownies would be waiting for us on the counter. She always made an extra effort to make birthday's and special occasions that much more special by backing, making or sewing something. Now, as I have had my own children, her abilities still amaze me. Not only did she help out that first week I was home from the hospital, but she came everyday last week. WOW!!!! Juggling her job she still found time to take care of me, my children, bake bread, muffins, Beckham's birthday cake, cook and clean. Mom, I can't tell you enough how much that has meant to me!!!!!! You are such an amazing woman and hope that someday when I grow up and can be just like you. You are such a fantastic Mother and Grandmother. The kids just adore you and it shows!!!!!!!!!! It's hard to describe in words how much your care has meant to me. I am truly indebted to you!!! Thanks a million times over Mom!!!! You are the GREATEST!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thank you for this post. I owe one to mom. I think you wonderfully articulated how lucky we are to have Penny as a mom. She's truly amazing and so generous with her talents. I love you too mom!

She is also a great Aunt! I remember after I had Maxwell, she was the one that remembered that I could probably use lip gloss. As if that wasn't enough she gave me some bread and a little thought book. She has always been so kind to me as well as thoughtful!!

I have Penny-envy!

If you ever get tired of those grand-kids Penny and want to adopt some, mine are available!

I'm glad that you have your Mom to help you since the C-section Amberlyn- especially since your lamo friend got herself the flu!
