One is how when we were in Scotland, I dumped a chicken dinner on my mom’s lap when she was wearing her white pantsuit. Another is how on a plane one time I spilled a full glass of orange juice on her lap while she was wearing her white pantsuit.

Can you imagine what her luggage cart(s) looks like now that she’s a mother of twin toddlers?!
