Happy Birthday, Mama

Happy Birthday, Mama ... born March 31, 1921

and now 88 years old.

My parents, yesterday.
I brought a lunch of some of Mama's favorite foods, plus
a tiny birthday cake. My sister, her husband, my Dad and I
all celebrated with my mother.

It astounds me that, as deeply affected as she is by Alzheimer's,
she can still rally and smile and be sociable when it's a party!

Happy Birthday, Tina.

And before I go ... there's a lovely giveaway at Life At Home. Mrs. G, a most generous lady indeed, is giving away some gorgeous blue-and-white china. You must go visit ... here ... or maybe not, as the more of you who visit the worse my odds are of winning. Only kidding -- go and see, and comment and sign up!
