Your mom was quite talented - and what a sweet reminder of the love she showed by making these quaint ornaments!<br /><br />I kinda liked the crooked room photo - your "crookedness" is one of the things I like best about you!<br /><br />I've never been a big fan of egg nog - and this cartoon was enough to make me NEVER drink it again!! Maybe I'll just copy the cow - straight alcohol, right from the bottle!<br /><br />Thanks for the cherished friends poem. I feel the same way - you are an answer to prayer!
