Brittany

My daughter Brittany is brilliant.


Yes, I know, every mother says that, but she really is.


Brittany is my first baby - I had her when I was 19, really still a baby myself. As she has matured, our relationship has changed ~ Of course she still has things come up where she needs a little advice or coaching, but for the most part, I have been able to step back into the role of cheerleader, watching in awe as she takes on one thing after another with her delightfully sarcastic sense of humor and 'can-do' attitude.

At 21, she has already published her first childrens book (it's called "The Litch" by Clementine Pistaccio (great pen name huh?) - you can find it on Amazon or Barnes and Noble). She works full time and is taking a full load of classes at college. She volunteers through her work regularly for all sorts of good causes, Breast cancer awareness, MS, Prostate cancer, etc. And she is an amazing photographer!


Rock star right? This girl, she inspires me!



So my darling Brittany, should you read Mama's silly blog, I want to say thank you for:



Agatha Christie and working out together, vampire movies, and Pride and Prejudice, One Man's Wilderness, and anything Audrey Hepburn, Marilyn Monroe, and James Dean, old movies...I used to introduce you to 'new' ones, now you are the expert, and being 'big sister Brittee' to these four little brothers of yours! You are my sweet pea frevs!
