Happy Mother’s Day!!!-look Mom I posted

11 05 2008

Come and listen to my story about a mother named Cheri.

It all started with a wonderful woman we have called “a goddess among women” (really) since childhood…

She\'s on the right, joined by family in all her blogging glory

She’s on the right, joined by some family in all her blogging glory

 

First, she added me…

Shirt notes a year where my UCSB earned more Nobel Prizes (2) than Parents’  UCLA (0)

 

Second, although at the time, I wasn’t sure why, she added Courtney…

Showing off her table manners at the high society event of Laura’s 6th birthday

 

Which made the two of us gooney kids…

On cultural overload atop a double decker bus in London

 

I guess to shake things up in our female house, and to create another female, she added my Dad…

Enjoying their favorite treats, Dad with Laura (bringing me to my next point)

 

Next, because she is amazing at making fetus into girl and girl into woman, she added Laura…

That blonde Water Babies kid has nothing on her

 

And Laura makes three…

At new heights on the London Eye

 

By association through me, persuasive culinary love, and computer wizardry came this guy… 

It’s really Adam incognito 

 

Mom did have the power to add, but he did not come without the approval power of her…

Laura, the toothless

 

In the end, my Mom is more amazing than a “Godfather” role in our family, she is our “goddess among women”…

Getting a little emo at my graduation

 

And, for which, I’ve tried to bestow her with awards…

Receiving my gratitude stole from my graduation gown

 

For more reasons than any story could tell, I love my Mom…

Feel the love

 

I love you Mom. Happy Mother’s Day!!!

Kristen
