Sunday Snapshot {A Special Bond}

My mom came for a visit this past weekend.
She lives several hours away....
It is always a treat when 'Grandma' is around....
We do the usual...

Talking for hours...trying to catch up with everything in her life...in my life...

The Littles vying for her attention.....wrestling to get on her lap.....telling her stories.....covering her kisses!

Shopping.
Watching movies.
Eating.

Ya know...just regular 'stuff'.

But, then there is this:








A very special bond....
'A Grandmother/Granddaughter' type of thing going on!

These two have always had a close, fun-filled relationship.
They are actually quite a lot alike.....

They both love to laugh.







They both enjoy silliness.







They are extremely passionate,
Are not afraid of standing up for what they believe in,
Vocal with their opinions,
A fighter for the under-dog,

Loyal to a fault,
Extremely forgiving,
Compassionate, giving, & loving.





Somewhat bossy....




But, always in a good way!  :)



These two....I tell ya!

I love 'em both to pieces.....

I am proud to be smack dab in the middle of them.....

My mother....and....
My {oldest} daughter!

What a pair!




I am blessed!



Hop over to Stefanie's....



Ni Hao Y'all

And, join in the fun!
