Chelly Belly: The story behind the name

Hello all! I wanted to make a special post for today. As you all know the name of my blog is Chelly Belly, but a lot of people don't know what this means. Let me first say that, my mother is the biggest part of my life. She was a phenomenal person and mother. She was my Hero! But this day, two years ago, she died of congestive heart failure. I've been comtemplating for a while whether or not I should share this but, she was one of the reasons I'm writing this now. She has givin me so much confidence and love, I thought it only fair to return some of the favor. A gorgous addition to this earth and I'm saddend she had to leave.

(her favorite place in the WORLD!)

Where I get my good looks and posing skill!

P.S. She died a few days before my 14th birthday. So that means, on Thursday, I'll be SIXTEEN!!! She would have been 40 this year so, the parties would have been WILD!! I love you mommy...
