Happy Birthday Bridget...Happy Mother's Day

It seems hard to believe Bridget is 2!!! Although she brings joy and happiness to our lives...she is a handful. She is very lively and always on the go. She is my shadow and repeats everything I say- guess I better watch my tongue. We are blessed to have her as part of our family and love her spunky personality (most of the time). She is a ray of Sunshine in our lives- Happy Birthday Bridget!! (the kids kept telling her to smile but to open her eyes...she couldn't grasp the concept)

"Cheesy" is the only smile Bridget knows!!
My mom and Bridget share the same birthday...what a lucky girl Bridget is. My mom is the most amazing women you'll ever meet, I wish I was more like her. She is the most loving, kind, and selfless women and my life has been extremely blessed because of her. Her Christ like attitude is an incredible example to me. My children love her dearly especially Bridget so it seems fitting they share this day together. Even though Bridget loves my mom so much right now...someday she will realize how blessed she was to have Pauli Perkinson for a grandma and that she has a lot to live up to sharing a birthday with her. Happy Birthday and Happy Mother's Day Mom!

The kids and Todd gave me a video ipod for mother's day which will be lots of fun if I can ever learn how to use it!! Todd made dinner for me yesterday and it was great!

Oh how I love your mom! She was the nicest neighbor mom in the world. I never saw her upset even in the slightest way. Sometimes if you were throwing a fit, she would just chuckle and say, "oh Julie". Boy I wish I could chuckle at my kids' fits. And don't sell yourself short, Julie, your heart is as golden as your moms!!

Happy Happy Birthday Bridget!! She is such a cutie, we had so much fun with her a couple of weeks ago. I share my birthday with my Grandma and it was always so fun, I am glad she has the opportunity too! Hope you had a very Happy Mother's Day!!
