today i'd like to send some cross-country love to my mom who is celebrating her special day! HAPPY BIRTHDAY mi mama! though we are apart i know you are here in spirit...egging me on to get things done in the house & always keeping the creative fire burning under me!
for those of you who haven't had the pleasure of meeting marian, otherwise known as "beth's mom", at my shady hollow cottage...she is the gal happily chatting away on the front porch! she is always my head cheerleader & faithful worker bee - ready to give me a helping hand {as shown below}
...thank you mom for just being you! and to think...i only have to repay her with my love & maybe one of my "gourmet" salads or two! i hope you have a special day & look forward to giving you a belated birthday hug in person...love ya!
