12)Whose behavior merited celebration?
My MIL Kaye...she is stepped up to be a cornerstone of my support system. She watches my angel day in and day out without a single complaint (even when she has her own things to get done).

I love reading everyon's answers to these questions. I was disappointed that we had conflicting family functions and couldn't come to Jerica's B-day party. I was hoping to get to see you and Bobby. We were talking about you guys the other day and Jerica said that he is the cutest baby she has ever seen!
ReplyDeleteCongrats on losing the baby weight! I hope I can do the same starting in a few months. I had no idea how easy it was going to be to gain weight during pregnancy!!!
