I’ve had the same best friend since I was 6 months old.

Love this!  I remember going with your family and getting your from the emergency room in the middle of the night when you totalled your car and how absolutely thankful we were that you were essentially unhurt.  I also remember the purple hair and Letterman stage with a smile!  And the reason I can change my oil and even my brakes is because your dad taught me too when we were in high school.  If I haven’t told you lately, it was fun getting to grow up with you and your family – I’m a better person today for the impact all of you had in my life back then! 

I hope you have an amazing birthday, surrounded by those you love!  Happy Birthday mama – keep on rockin’ it!

Full of faith + a lot of coffee.  Wife to a kick ass guy.  Mama to two sweet girls + a Yorkie boy.  After working in fashion for almost a decade, I am now a stay at home mom.  I spend way too much time thinking about that chocolate in the pantry + those new heels in my closet.  I hope you enjoy my take on all things sweet.
