My Aunt Judy is my "other mother". She has always acted as a second mom to me. My mom worked full time when I was little so my aunt stepped in to provide childcare. I have always deemed her extra special since she played such a large part in my upbringing. When her 50th anniversary desires for a big party came up, I offered to make invitations. Originally, I was going to do a simple computer graphic one and print it through Shutterfly. That ended up not happening. I decided to make all 54 invites myself. Besides the shopping and creating the rough draft, I spent a whole day putting them together (7:30am-11:30pm with just a few breaks for meals and picking up the boys from school). It was a pain but well worth the ecstatic praise I got when Judy saw the invite for herself. They are elegant and classy, just how I view her.
This will be the place to read about my 4 journeys as a gestational surrogate and my hectic life with 2 kiddos. I may even share some recipes from time to time. Check it out frequently for the latest happenings. :)
