Happy Mothers Day!

Dear Mom,

Thank you for being you. Thank you for your unconditional love. Thank you for your incredible patience. Thank you for supporting me 110% no matter what I wanted to be. When I wanted to be a ballerina you took me to dance classes. When I was 15 and wanted to be an actress you let me move from my protected private school to the local Charter performing arts school. When we had to move back to Arizona from California you searched for a school that would nurture my creativity, this is where I discovered my love of photography. You let me paint my bedroom walls with stripes and murals, you knew that dying my hair pink (and green and blue and red) didn't change who I was inside.

A few years later you supported my dream as I went on to College at an Art School. You trusted that I would continue to be me in the face of all the temptation that was ahead at college.

Mom, you let me grow up and be who I am which makes me all the more great full I had you as my mother. Although I am still growing up I am, and will continue to be, your little girl.

I love you mom.

Happy Mother's Day to all you wonderful mothers out there and also to you future moms!

Daily Life: Disneyland and "The Cheeze"

This past week I have had the pleasure of spending time with my adorable niece Charlize. She is such a character! Every time I see her I am amazed by how much she is growing, learning, and chattering. Chuck and Elisha do such a great job with her and it really shows. She is so bright and I am lucky to have her as my niece! I cannot wait to see the young lady she turns out to be.

That being said I was able to clear up my schedule this past Tuesday to head to Disneyland with Chuck, Elisha, Pam, and my Mom for Charlize's 2nd birthday. This St. Patty's baby was a blast, so intrigued and excited by everything, it was the best!

She sang, clapped, ran up to the characters and gave them big hugs and was exhausted by the end of the day...we all were! So this post is for her and her joy.

Happy Birthday Cheeze!!!

As soon as she spotted that castle she tried to make a break for it

Charlize enchanted with "It's a Small World"

Loving Goofy

Immediately after she hugged Minnie she ran into the house, turned around and said "Come on Minnie"

Hugging her present from Aunt Marianne



I can't wait to see all the changes that happen with the next year!

Birthday fun and A great Christmas!

Just wanted to pop in and say I hope everyone has a very merry Christmas this year!

I was just going through some of the Christmas photos and will post a little 'Wilson Christmas Slideshow' in the next few days.

As for today, It's my birthday!!!!!! Woohoo!

I would like to thank everyone who called/texted/emailed me today. I was overloaded with facebook messages and text lovin. You are all wonderful and made a girl feel very loved on this warm December Tuesday. Also, thank you to my wonderful friend Resa who met up with me at the Sherman Oaks Galleria to grab lunch at the Cheesecake Factory, I use the term grab loosely because we were there for over 2 hours chatting! Gotta love great friends! She also had them sing Happy Birthday, on accident :)

Of course I want to thank my amazing Mother for birthing me on this day back in 1985. I am glad you made it through the Christmas pageant and had me a few days later. I couldn't ask for a smarter, more beautiful, and patient mother. You really are the best! Thanks for going through all that pain. Hope it was worth it! Also to my father who I wouldn't be here without either. Thanks pops! I love you both an unbelievably large amount ;)

Last, but certainly not least. A big thanks to my wonderful boyfriend who I will be seeing later this evening for a delicious sushi dinner in Thousand Oaks. Glad I was born and met you about 19 years later. I love you and am so blessed to have shared the last 3 birthdays with you.

I have been thinking a lot about what this next year will bring. Not only do I have the next year of my life but also a whole new year. Double the resolutions! I am working on my list for both personal and business related resolutions and will post a few as soon as I finalize my goals.

Thanks again to everyone for the birthday wishes!
