This weeks Thursday Thirteen revolves around my daughter Mandy. She came up today to visit and celebrate both her birthday and Christmas, and it was so good to see her. Here is a little list about my daughter.
1. I think she is one of the nicest people I know.
2. I also think she is very beautiful. But then, I am her Mum so perhaps I am somewhat biased! LOL
3. Mandy works very hard at her job as a project manager in Oncology research.
4. She drives a cute little convertible sports car. I really love it!
5. She is also a great driver. I never feel uncomfortable driving with her.
6. She loves all animals and is very sweet and gentle with them.
7. She has a great sense of humor too. She makes me laugh!
8. All my dogs go crazy when she arrives. They just LOVE her.
9. She got me the most wonderful Christmas presents. My favorites are two wire-haired dachshund Christmas ornaments! Those I may keep out all year long.
10. Mandy takes really good care of her grandmother, even though it is not an easy job.
11. She lives about an hour and a half from here and I wish she lived closer.
12. She has three big, beautiful, cats! Maestro, Cleo and my favorite, Ortez. He was named for David Ortez of the Red Sox.
13. At the end of the day, I am and will always be, proud to be her Mum!
Thanks Mom! That was very nice! Also had a great time today! Thank you so much for my gifts, and the kitties loved their presents. Ortiz especially likes the cat nip bags!
Night!
Love,
Mandy
I agree with you she is a pretty girl ! and I also think that she is what she is because of you too ! There are certainly some “left overs” from the education you gave her, lol !
BTW I could say the same of my son, but if I would do it here, I think despite the fact that he is a very good tempered boy he would kill me !
I have to buy more Lebkuchen I already filled the box 3 times but Mr. Gattino doesn’t eat them he devores !!
aww that is so SWEET!
She is a very pretty girl and you sound very proud of her and with good reason. I am sure you treasure your times with her! Enjoy them.
Hugs
I’m glad you guys had a good time! Love the pictures 🙂
What a wonderful tribute to her. Actually you two look more like sisters than mother and daughter, no sweet talk!
It really looks like you’re having a good time together and with the dogs too 🙂
Awww, what a wonderful tribute to your daughter 🙂
Great tribute to a lovely daughter. You are lucky to have each other. Happy birthday (belated) to Mandy!
