So glad Im back from my holiday in time to catch your daughter birthday celebrations!!Looks like you enjoyed a truly special day, congrats to her and you and have a lovely time in Paris. Pick up lots of shoe candy on my behalf wont you. S xx
What a wonderful post! Happy birthday to your daughter. I'm a few years older than her, and I know how special time with my mom is. She lives in California, and I in Florida, so visits are limited. I hope you two have the best time ever. Thank you SO much for your kind words. It brought a huge smile to my face this morning. Things are better, nothing a Friday night of crafting and reorganizing, and Saturday morning breakfast can't cure. :) Paris was on my mind yesterday, try to see Versailles if you haven't already.
