mother's day

we have never really celebrate mother's day. i think everyday you should show gratitude for those who do so much for us. my family is told that they can't go all out. the most i want is a nap! but, this mother's day i got a very special gift from small fry. can you guess from this picture what it is? yep, it's that beautiful necklace you see me wearing! i wore it to church and got so many comments. what do you think? i loved that the necklace covered my stomach all day and i didn't have to hold it all in! and, yes, i finally cut my hair and donated 10 inches to locks of love!
