Baby Maureen either has a lofty perception of me or she plans on trading me in.
Yesterday afternoon, she picked up a copy of "What Makes a Leonardo a Leonardo," thumbed to the page with the image of the Mona Lisa and began signaling and squealing animatedly, "Look! It's Mommy! Mommy! It's Mommy!" following up with a cascade of kisses to the famous face and devoted murmurs of "I love you, Mommy!"
By the way, but for the brown hair, there is no resemblance whatsoever--except, of course, that we are both beginning to crack with age!
That is so sweet and funny all at the same time! :)

This is a very cute story.
Maybe Catherine should write "DaVinci Code Revisitied" and explain how it's really a picture of her mommy, therefore making DaVinci a prophet or soothsayer!

Hi Alice,
I really enjoy your blog, your writing, your ideas and your family...
Btw...I think it's better to crack with age than to just plain "crack!" LOL!
God Bless,
Maria P
