A girl needs her mom.

My mom was able to come visit for the past {almost} week.  I just LOVE having her in town.  It was perfect to have her here for my birthday.  My class had been asking for a few months now about when they were going to get to meet my parents so it was just perfect.  I feel so blessed to have her in my life.  She is so much fun and such a great example to me.  The closer I get to having my own children, the more I recognize the qualities that I want to have as a mother.  I can only hope I am half of what she is.
