Top 10

Every year on New Year's Eve we sit down to create our May Family top 10 list. We keep the lists in one book and always get a laugh at looking at years past. This year at #2 on the list is finding out we are going to have one more baby. Also on the list this year was my mom's birthday cruise, our Canada trip, Heritage Makers being on Oprah's "All-time favorites" list, and, like every year since Teague's cancer, the #1 spot goes to another year of good health.

Teague turned 10 a couple days ago. It made me reflect on a couple things. First, he is still with us and what a blessing I find that to be. I know so many moms who went through what we did and had to say goodbye to their child. The second thing is that I realized I have been a mom for 10 years now. It felt like an anniversary in a way. One that should be celebrated.

One of my goals is to complete a family year book. At the end of the "photojournalistic-style" book I put the year's top ten list. If you want to start creating one of your own let me know I can get you started. Go to my website www.doctorstorybook.com and go to the template gallery and choose the template: "simple simon" for 8.5 x 11.5 size book. Upload your photos and write your stories to go along with them.

Here is a couple photos of the books:









Happy New Year, I will be on a cruise (for Heritage Makers) with my mom for the next week. We have a dress up night on the cruise, this year's theme is "famous couples" and my mom and I are going to be Hegh Hefner's Girl's Next Door with Mary & Mark so be sure to check back for those photos, if I dare post them.
