Priscilla ~

Your daughter was certainly a radiant, attractive bride!  Congratulations to you both and thanks for sharing that lovely photo. 

Jim
4.5 cm AN diagnosed 5/06.  Retrosigmoid surgery 6/06.  Follow-up FSR completed 10/06.  Tumor shrinkage & necrosis noted on last MRI.  Life is good. 

Life is not the way it's supposed to be. It's the way it is.  The way we cope with it is what makes the difference.

She is absolutely gorgeous!  What a beautiful smile she has!  Just like her mom!

Congratulations!  Now you can take a deep breath and relax.  My daughter is getting married in September - seems like there's always something to do.  I keep telling her to just elope to Vegas and I'll pay for the Elvis impersonator, but she's not accepting my generous offer so far.  She may rethink that the week before the wedding!

Thanks Moe.

The grey hair doesn't show up in the picture!   ;)

My family seems to have been genetically cursed with things like AN's, heart issues, thyroid issues, etc....but we tend to age pretty gracefully.  I think I would have traded the AN for a few more wrinkles though!   :D

I haven't had time for a meltdown!  I have one more week of school, and was surprised with a mega retirement party with dozens and dozens of present and former students and families.  Way too much emotion in less than a week for this tired mom/teacher!!  Maybe I can schedule a meltdown sometime in June :D :D

My husband said, "Sure can tell they are related."  I agree, beautiful daughter with her beautiful mom.  Thanks for posting this.
