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!

ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday to your sweet mom!
ReplyDeleteIt looks like she was having a great time :)
This brings back memories -- I looked after my Mama for five years. She was almost 87 when she passed away. Like your mother, she still enjoyed a celebration, even though she didn't always know it was for her!
