What a nice tribute to your Mom it takes quite the sense of humor to be a Mom
aww-how sweet are you! What a nice tribute to your mom!
Your mom sounds like a really wonderful and interesting person! =) Happy (almost) Mother's Day to you too!
Treasure each and every day you have with her. She sounds like a special lady. Mother's Day is a hard one for me this year since my Mom passed at Christmas.
Happy T13!
I'm fortunate as hell to be able to say that #13 is true of my mother and I as well.
Happy TT.
Happy Mother's Day to you too!
My Thursday 13
Having a good sense of humor can make a huge difference.
great post!
happy mother's day!
Adelle: I know the feeling. My mom went to be with the Lord December of 1999 and Mother's Day just is hard.

My mom and I were very close like it appears you and your mom are. We used to play Canasta too but Scrabble was my mom's favorite. Nice post here about your mom!
How cool that your mom blogs!
Aww, Jenn, your mom is great. To discover a talent for cake decorating? That's cool. Not a lot of people are willing to discover a talent for something so difficult and time-consuming (not to mention creative, intricate, and full of trashed attempts).
Happy upcoming Mother's Day to YOU, too.
Your mom sounds like a great person to know. I hope you share this tribute with her. Happy Mother's Day!
Sounds like a great Mom. I love canasta too, haven't played in forever though.
Happy TT & Mother's day!
Yeah! Go mom!
Great post!
Great list of things about your mom! It's wonderful to have her as your mom and your friend!
What a great tribute. It's such a blessing to have a good mom.
That's a great list, how wonderful to have such a great relationship with your mother!
You list reminded me of my Mom who passed away nearly 20 years ago. She loved Canasta too and taught me to play. I will be missing my Mom this Sunday - can I give your Mom a surrogate hug?
I was not inspired this week so I foisted my TT off on Pixel for 5 cookies and a short walk - actually she did a good job for someone who had to type with their nose!
Hi, I'm Pixel. My TT is 13 things doggies like.
A beautiful tribute to your mother, Jenn! Thanks for visiting my list!

Great post. Now I'm feeling like a total schmuck for not doing a tribute to my mom this week... Next week's not too too late, right?
Thanks for stopping by Sweet Tea and Sunshine!
