My mom came for a visit last week and Holden absolutely adored her.  He was all smiles and wide eyes for his grandma:

It was a huge help to have my mom here for the week.  I had a chance to shower, eat, and nap.  Now I’m on my own again!   Mom also did the sweetest thing while here–she had a baby bootie-shaped vase filled with a beautiful flower arrangement.  This same vase was used to deliver flowers to her when I was born 30 years ago!  Yes, the vase is pink, but as my mom noted, I may never have a daughter, so now is the time to make the gesture…it was really such a heartwarming gesture!

I know you don’t have Internet and can’t read this, but we love you Mom!
