Granny's birthday

It seems that days, even weeks can go by without anything worth sharing happens. Then, something can happen daily for a while. That is how my weekend has been.

Monday, yesterday, was my mom's 98th birthday. We had all my kids and grandkids along with my sister's entire family over for a party. We swam and had dinner and cake (lit with 98 candles). I had given all the kids an assignment to talk to granny and find out specific things about her life. No one was really happy with the request, but it turned out great. Granny thoroughly enjoyed it. She listened to facts about her life with a huge smile on her face. She loved recalling her life and sharing it with us. It was important for the kids to hear things they didn't know about granny.
