Ode to my Mother
As most people know I like to keep things busy and moving, well . . . . let me tell ya that I don't move fast enough to keep up with Jeanette. She and my dad left for San Diego on Tuesday and on Wednesday I found myself making T-shirts, sewing straps on a prom dress and acting as the family physician on call. I fear I am not a very good fill-in. I just don't know how she keeps everything straight. Between her four jobs and being on-call to everyone in the town and helping paint my brother's house; She somehow still finds time for the family and spending time with the grandkids. She is truly an example. I am so blessed to have a talented mother that has past on some of those amazing talents to me. Love ya Mom---You are the greatest!

I love your mom (well really your whole family). My goal in life is to be like Jeanette. She always has time for everyone and everything, and is always so kind about it. If any one needs anything they know they can call on her. I really appreciate her and all her talents. You kids are alot like her and that is a way big compliment, I think! Thanks Vernon family for being so GREAT!
Yay for Jeanette. I don't think I could've asked for a better mother-in-law.
And you are a good filler-inner for her. :) (...if that makes sense.) :) :)
Jen, your Mom truly is amazing. I want to be more like her. Yes, she has passed on great abilities to you and your siblings. I stalk your blog now and then because you inspire me to do more! I feel so lazy when I read about the gazillions of things you're doing!
