Today is Mothers 88th birthday… I gave her the present weeks ago as I got a new chain for a item she had me take to be repaired and the chain was all tarnished … She asked me when I was going to get it back and I knew I had to give it to her early…. I left a card out for her to find this morning… I had planned on being up as I usually am when she got up .. But I wasn’t… So glad I had the card out for her… She is now listening to one of her talking books… She loves them…I have yarn to give her at dinner time as another present… She is using up her old stuff right now.. I have some Ilene gave me for her from the girls and some I bought her..She will have plenty…I wanted to find her some long pants but can’t seem to find legs wide enough.. her knee’s are bad and she wants some that don’t bind the knee when she sits…

She lost another one of her cousins this week.. There are not many left.. And some of them have lost children my age.. It really get you to thinking about life… I hope some of them remember her today as well as our kids… I am not telling anyone to see who remembers… No matter how busy you are you should not forget your grandma or great grandma…
