I Love You, Mom

I know this post is going to come back and bite me, but it's so worth it.

Earlier this week, Mom (bless her heart) had her teeth worked on...a crown or something...and they had to numb her up. One of the top three funniest things in the world to me is seeing people talk, smile, frown, anything after they've been numbed up in the face. So, I asked her to send me a picture after she got done at the dentist. First off, I'd like to say that I am so proud of her that she can actually take a picture with her cell phone and then send it to me. Mom, that's awesome. It seems like only yesterday you were learning to how forward an email. You've come so far.

This is what she sends me. I was just delighted and laughed for a good long while. The facial expression she was attempting to create was a kiss pucker...this is how it turned out.

I personally think my mom is the most beautiful women on the face of the planet. And I'm not just saying that because she's my mom. She looks like a Ralph Lauren model to me. This is Mom in her natural element...

Wait...that's not the picture I was looking for....ah, here it is...

Here's to you, Mom. Don't be too mad about the numb face pictures. Hey, remember that time last Christmas when we cleaned the entire front garden area and got rid of all the leaves for you and Dad and you didn't even have to ask us? Yeah...remember that...
