Happy birthday mom!

My mom is celebrating her birthday today!! I just visited her and gave her a GIANT hug... She's really my HERO and I'm so thankful she's still here with us!! I don't think I told you guys before.. My mom survived cervical cancer!! She was diagnosed about 4 years ago.. she couldn't have any surgery at that moment as the cancer had grown too far...We were devastated... they told us that the chance to survive this was minimal.... She had to go through so many painful treatments. Happily we got some good news after a couple of months...the cancer was gone.. the tumor was still there.. but without the cancer cells inside!! She's still suffering from all the treatments at the moment....she's living her life day by day..I admire her so much.. it must be so hard for her sometimes!!

We took her (and my dad) out for dinner yesterday.. here's a little picture of her opening the present we got her (a beautiful watch)...
Hope you all enjoyed your weekend! Our weekend was great.. but unfortunately time is always flying by way to fast during those days... I wish time flew by at work too.. hehe..

I finished this layout yesterday.. it had been on my scrap table for several days.. I was too lazy to glue everything down.. so yesterday I sat down for it..hehe... (pictures: from our Mexico trip back in April)
BTW.. don't forget that it's World Card Making day on October 6th!! Check out the Creativexpress forums for some fun challenges on that day!!!!!!

Pascal is on his way home.. so I'd better prepare some things for dinner (I had a day off today and I didn't do anything besides grocery shopping, playing with my scrap goodies and surfing on the Internet..hehe..)

Enjoy your week!!

XOXO
