No sorries please, Kristin--not for sharing yourself with us. I hope you've told her, or will someday.

Spike's Bitches 23: We've mastered the power of positive giving up.
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
Kristin, your mom is the sweetest!
I think one of the main reasons I always wanted to be a mom was because I wanted to be able to be the kind of mom she has been for me.
And, so are you.
You gave me warm fuzzies.
In short, having a child isn't a prerequisite to being a caring, loving, maternal person.
Very true, and I plan on being the best adopted Aunt ever as well as good friend.
I hope you've told her, or will someday.
Oh yes. She and I regularly exchange long, schmoopy cards and letters telling each other how grateful we are to have the relationship that we do. We also spend a lot of time just hanging out and chatting. She's one of my best friends in the world. I think some of that comes from being an only child and from the fact she and Dad divorced in '93 and she's never remarried or been even in a serious relationship since. (I'm pretty sure that "fierce independence" is embedded on the X chromosome I inherited from her.) She rocks.
Man, that schmoopy tag just won't close.
Kristin, want some quality one on one Emeline while you're here??
That's some good schmoop.
-t!! Iwas just thinking about you. How are you?
-t, good to see you. Hope you are doing okay!
Kristin, your mom rocks. What a great way to start the day.
I like the Mom schmoop. Before my mom got crazy, she was totally kick ass like that. That's what I remember best.
My mom was like that, too. Probably why I try to be a cool mom for my daughter. She doesn't always think so, but since all her friends tell her I am, I will go with their unbiased opinions.
