Love Notes from Lauren

Hard to believe that my baby girl will be 5 years old on Friday! She has always been my "snuggle bug" and loves to give and receive lots of hugs and kisses!! She always says, "Mom...I love you" at random times throughout the day. Or she'll say, "You're my best Mom," and I'll say, "You're my best Lauren."

Now that she is learning to read and write, she likes to write me love notes.
