ASHLYNN & BOSTON: December 2nd

32 years ago on December 2nd one of the worlds greatest pop stars was born; Britney Spears. And as much as I love Miss Spears, (believe me I do, even when she had her crazy stage of shaving her head) an even greater person was born on a December 2nd before that; Eloise Ogden; my mom.

I literally have been blessed with one of the best moms there is. I know being the best mom isn't a competition but if it were she would probably come close to taking the gold in that category.

My mom is so talented, she can play any song on the piano and is one of the best singers ever. She is so kind and so thoughtful, to everyone. My mom has so much more grace than I will ever imagine having. For every time I give a smart-ass response to someone I feel deserves it my mom is giving a much kinder response. She is also tough. When my dad died she didn't break down, she wasn't worried about how she would cope but more helping her daughters.

Any good quality I possess I know it's something I got from my mom. Even mine and Boston's big eyes come from her! I literally don't think Boston could have been blessed with a better "namma". Boston and I are very close and she will pick me over anyone... Until my mom is in the picture & then she will do anything to get to her. She loves my mom so much and my mom deserves all of the love Boston's shows her. I am so blessed that Boston has such a great set of grandparents!
