10 years...

10 years... I can't believe it's already been 10 years!! It's in occasions like these that you realize just how much you wish you could stop time. Andrea, my oldest, celebrated her birthday on August 2nd but with my going back to work, I only just finished her card today... I know, I'm an unworthy mom, but at least she gets another birthday surprise :)

The image is «Video Girl» by Mo Manning. She just happened to bare a slight resemblance to the birthday girl:

I added a little glossy accents on her eyes for a little shine :) and colored her with my prisma color pencils.

I even got to be a little creative with her cake (which is the easiest cake recipe to make AND is absolutely scrumptious!!)

Who doesn't like chocolate, whipped cream and raspberries??

I sure am lucky to have such a wonderful, healthy daughter! I just wish seeing her grow up didn't have to mean that I have to get more and more grey hairs :) LOL!!

Happy Birthday Didi, Mom loves you more than you can ever imagine!

In case anyone wants to try it: cake recipe here :) it's in french but if anyone needs translating just let me know :)

Thanks again for visiting :)
