Birthday Girls!

This is my mom with Julianna the day Julianna came home from the hospital. Julianna was born on Mom's birthday!
Mom hasn't changed, but Julianna sure has! Today is their birthday. Julianna is 2, Mom is a little bit older! We're having a family party next week when Heather, Ed and the kids come up for a long weekend.
She's such a ham- as soon as she sees a camera, she's all grins. All you have to do is say "shop" to her, and she's ready to go out the door!

Sam is getting really tired of being in the hospital, which is a good sign. No news yet on what's happening- waiting for labs.

I named the string quilt "The Road is Long" and took it up to her today. The name refers to the first line of the song "He ain't heavy, he's my brother" by the Hollies. The song goes- "The road is long, with many a winding turn, that leads us to who knows where, who knows when."It seemed appropriate. The other names I considered were "Chest tubes and veggie burgers" or "snowy days and Mondays".

We had a two hour delayed opening this morning, which was kind of cool. By the time homeroom was over, it was time for first lunch! Made the day go by fast!
