Best Day Ever

What a babe!

On this day, an undisclosed amount of years ago, my mother was born. Ever since then, she's been raising hell. Haha, just kidding. But no, really...

She's the kind of mom that I'm sure made other kids jealous. For years Katie was convinced she only had friends because they wanted to come over and hang out with our mom.

As you've all probably figured out by now, I like to list things. It helps me get all my thoughts out, so here's another list...

The Top 15 Reasons Marti Wallwork is the Coolest & Most Awesome Mom Ever:

2. She collects leather-bound books because she loves the smell.
3. Her eyes sparkle when she laughs, it's kind of pretty.

6. Her jewelery collection is pretty great too.
7. She taught me how to play backgammon with her.

She's entirely too good for me, but I feel honored to even live in the same house as her when I come home. She does so much that I'm shocked she hasn't been nominated for something. She is easily the strongest person I know. Live it up Mom, it's your birthday today!
