The bottom line.
I always thought it was fitting that my mom's birthday ended up on Mother's Day so often. It just fits! She should be celebrated TWICE in the same day! Wish she was here, I'd introduce you. You'd love her too.

This was so very sweet. You must miss her very much. She was obviously an amazing woman!
What a wonderful tribute to your mother! She's beautiful. I love these older pictures. They are really intriguing to me. From what I know of you and all of your values, wisdom, and insights, she must've been a wonderful mother. You are her prodigy. I hope your day was beautiful.
A great compliment to your mother! It's nice to see such a thorough tribute to a mom!
Haven't visited in a long while. I love your blog: colors, set up, cute pictures, all of it! It's great!
What an amazing tribute this is, Julie. Your family can really treasure the work that went into this.
