eight things i did/learned this year....
1-learned-that I'm a loving marmy, it's still hard to believe that im a mama bear.

3-learned-to my surprise....i can COOK. pretty darn good, if i say so myself. ( i grew up with delicouse meals, even down to the brown paper bag lunches. you wouldn't believe what my fellow kid mates were offering, for the big famous homeade cookie. i think that's how i became the leader of my possy on the playground(j/k ha, ha) no but really hats off to you mom! i have had such a wonderful mama chef, so i always had big shoes to fill. i'll admit, i think i was a bit intimidated therfore hesitant. turns out i really enjoy it!)
