My... how we've changed!!

You'll notice that I've updated my profile picture on my blog. The picture I had been using for my profile was taken in China on one of their famous red couches in the White Swan Hotel. I can't get over how much Emma and Josie have grown in one year. I have such beautiful girls! Josie isn't my baby anymore and Emma is looking more and more grown up. Check out the changes below:

Easter Sunday in Guangzhou 2008


Mother's Day 2009


I had a lovely Mother's Day. I was treated to a delicious cup of coffee in bed complete with whipped cream and a pile of gifts.



We spent the afternoon with my extended family dining at a favorite restaurant and then going back to my parents to celebrate Emma's 11th birthday.

I've always raved about my mother's artist talents. As much as I'm creative and crafty, I didn't any inherit any of her sewing skills what-so-ever. She made the most amazing journal for Emma.



Just look at the detail work. It's so beautiful.



She also made my sister and I hand-strung pearl necklaces for Mother's day. We're so spoiled.



Thanks, Mom. You're the best!!



Happy Mother's Day. Hope all of the mothers, daughters, and mothers-to-be had a peaceful, loving day.
