A Special Birthday Wish For My Mom

Today is my mom's Birthday and I'd like to wish her a very Happy Birthday!! Today she is 73ish.....and I do mean "ish" as I fear the years have hit a wall and well...now we are reverting back towards childhood. True. I swear.

This is a early picture of my mom.....has not really changed too much through the years! She is a strong, independent woman who means so much to us.

Here she is in High School (the one on the far left)....she has always been a real show stopper....loves to be the center of attention and well, usually is, one way or another. She certainly lives life to the fullest!

See what I mean.....this was last week when she spent a couple of days with my daughter and niece in Austin shopping and having a good time....a little too good of a time if you ask me....clearly no adult supervision was along on this trip.

See....my daughter and my mom.....where are the adults here??? No where to be seen!

My daughter, niece and my mom.... I was afraid to ask what this was about! But you can be sure of one thing, there must have been lots of laughing going on!!

This was taken at my daughters apartment last week. That is my mom sleeping on the floor on a air mattress. While sleeping, my daughter and niece decided to leave and purchase party supplies and decorate all the while she was sleeping....she woke up to a mess beyond belief. All in honor of her Birthday!!! And she never heard anything!!

Yep, I am certain the years are reverting back to childhood even as I type this!!! Happy Birthday Mom.....I am so glad you are always ready to have fun!! I love you and hope you keep sliding into good times for a long time to come. You know they say, you are only as old as you feel, and well...from the looks of things, I'd say not bad!!!
