...but I'd rather starling.

My mother's 90th birthday is coming up soon (April 7) so I wanted to do something special for her. Her surrogate sons and daughters and I are giving her a little party on April 9, but I wanted a nice surprise for her, too. For her 80th birthday, I made her a book, and I didn't want to repeat myself. So I found some pictures, wrote some captions, and our own hominysnark of F-bod Studios took them and turned them into lovely wearable art (Mom loves her some sweatshirts). I'm so happy with them I wanted to share—but shhh! Mom doesn't know, so don't tell her.

Baby, the starling Mom is fond of kissing



Yep, that's Mom jumping that horse bareback

**love** them.

I'd be starling about them too. Especially the starling ones <3

Ha! Baby is a real ham and doesn't mind having her picture taken at all.

Your mom has done some awesome in her life!!!

[pjthompson.livejournal.com]

She has indeed. She's one tough senora.

[mnfaure.livejournal.com]

A tough senora is a good senora to be. :D

[pjthompson.livejournal.com]

Indeed! I'm not half as tough.

[kmkibble75.livejournal.com]

Those are awesome! She'll love them, I'm sure.

Thanks! I haven't been ignoring you, just busy. I'll write in a bit.
