This is my mother. Isn't she gorgeous? When I was in elementary school, I remember sitting at the lunch table, feeling so proud as all my girlfriends talked about how pretty my mom was, and how young she looked. Now, a couple of decades later, I feel the same way, only now I am proud of her for so many more reasons. She is a loving wife, a talented counselor, a smitten grandmother, a loyal friend, and a loyal follower of the Lord. She is witty and cute and charming. She is a great Nana to my children, always observing them and really relishing their little personalities.
Today is her birthday (I won't tell you how old she is. She's a lady, so don't ask, either). Here she is sharing HER birthday cake with Ada. I love how caring she is, even when she's just feeding her dessert.
Happy birthday Mom. I am so glad that God blessed the world with your birth.

Happy Birthday Bette

Yes, Lindsay is right on all counts -- Mom is cute, loyal, smart, gorgeous, spiritual, lovely, insightful, beautiful, funny, caring -- and still young at age..... (ummm, check Monday's blog for details).
And her daughters are ditto.
THANKS for bringing the babies and organizing a great party. It was great. And thanks to Lesley for cookin' supper Monday.

Ooops. Went back and changed post so as not to reveal any details about the lady's age...
That's nice! You are a good daughter - she has taught you well!
Happy Birthday!
