I think it is safe to say that she loves being a mom, but she <i><b>adores<\/b><\/i> being Nana.<\/p>\n<p>What is that saying?\u00a0 You can&#8217;t really appreciate someone until you have walked a mile in their shoes? Um, maybe I just pieced two different sayings together, I&#8217;m not sure. But at any rate, I think I have always had a healthy appreciation for my mom, but after becoming a mom, that appreciation has risen to a whole different level.<\/p>\n<p>She has taught me so much about being a mom. And she passed on to me, <b><i>some<\/i><\/b> of her creative genes. (You think I&#8217;m crafty? There is not a craft that this woman has not tackled, and been successful at!)<\/p>\n<p>Today we celebrate our Mom and Nana. And we are wishing you many more happy years. I&#8217;m hoping for a lot more time to learn even more from and with you.<\/p>\n<p>You should probably know, though &#8211; the camera is coming out next time we are together.
