MY oilcloth - "Our Mothers, ourselves"

  
  
  
  
  
  
  

Your mother; look in the mirror and you will see her.  If you can't see her, look closer and she is there.  Mother's day is a time for celebration and reflection.  Let's face it, half your DNA is running 'round with your mother's stamp on it and if you're adopted, her imprint runs just as deep.  

Michele's mom, Anne, raised eight kids and survived without a scratch! When there is chaos all around and Michele is the only one in the room who says, "Whatever, it will all work out," we all know where that coolness under pressure comes from. 

Yvette's mom, Tamara, mother of one, was always revered for being an early adopter of  the latest electronic gadget and she is the original Fashionista. Their family had the first Betamax on the block and of course her ability to accessorize would put most celebrities to shame. Yvette's been wearing an awful lot of jewelry lately, enough said.

Happy Mother's Day,

My mother is personal shopper and ever since I was little her fashionable influences have surrounded me. One year for my birthday she sewed me a dress and mad the same one for my cabbage patch doll. Now I look at clothes like art, and I love getting dressed and looking at other people's clothes. I definitely get that amongst many things from her. Now I just hope I can also get a shot of the kool aid from her fountain of youth.

And my favorite Anne Sommer quote of all time ... "A good man is hard to find" (with a knowing nod). Obviously she was successful at that too. PS - got that same Anne bag for my mom's birthday, she loves it too. Happy mothers day everyone!
