I love this! I remember that when I sat down for dinner I was thinking about how many phone calls there had been and I just had to write it all down.
Yesterday I happened to pull out a binder of letters I had sent to my Mom over the years and found this. It's been 20 years! Yikes!

Wow, mom....you had too many kids! I love that Annette thought she had frost bite. HAHA!! What was that, like 3 separate dinners? And lots of craziness with YW. Wow...that's a day. Can you believe it's been TWENTY years since then? Your life is a little different...and now your kids are entering that phase!!!
ha, I thought I had frostbite. That sounds like me. Poor Cherise, so sick. WOw, lots of teenagers going to and from the house.
Dang mom. It's funny how when you're a kid you don't realize the extent to which the mom is orchestrating everything. Sounds like I had a pretty great day that day!
Look at all those friends coming and going! That's the best...
I love that you did this AND just found it! Especially since I just did my day in pictures...it makes me excited for 20 years from now to find it and share it with my kids and grandkids. :)
You were a busy lady! And so many extra people to take care of, too!!!
i was ALWAYS siiiiiick. haha.
Mom I love love love this! Totally cool. Thanks for sharing momma!
I will stop complaining about my life. ;)
