I wanted to share with you the unbelievable plasticine art that my friend made for my birthday prezzie. She must love me because I got two-and God knows how many nights she was up into the wee hours trying to complete these before my party! She also made me an amazing cake AND cake topper that looks like ME! You can view the cake and the birthday girl at fiveallmine.com’s fan page on facebook.
Here’s the plasticine art piece (note the lollipops, a secret parenting trick to good photos):

Here’s the second one:

Suzanne put in real details, like outfits, the couch, floor, wall, pics etc.
Anyone with kids knows that you take at least 10 pics to get one decent one, and these illustrate the behind the scenes chaos. I actually sent a Christmas card this year with three pictures on it, one good family shot, and two pics with the kids clowning around. The only thing it didn’t show was how frustrated I was trying to keep them all in position!

Actually I had boy/girl twins. My eldest is a girl, then two boys, then my twins! I was praying when I was pregnant, first that they were healthy, and second that they weren’t both boys!!!!!I wanted another girl so badly!
