Birthday
Loving Grandson
Yesterday, my son surprised me with a video chat. It was so wonderful to hear and see him, his wife, and my grandchildren. My almost 1 year old granddaughter caught on after a bit and started waving and saying, “HI!” My parents and I were able to tell my grandson happy birthday as his birthday […]
Long Lasting Friendships
Today my parents completed their 2-week long anniversary and birthday celebrations. We met their group of friends at a local restaurant for lunch. They have known each other for over 40 years. My mom met the women through teaching music. They have been through many wonderful and many difficult times together. The group of them and […]
Celebrating Mom
Today is my mom’s birthday. We seem to celebrate for a few weeks during this time of year as my parents anniversary and birthdays are so close together. My mom jokingly said she had been waiting for this day to finally arrive. I somewhat jokingly but truthfully told her I was glad she made it […]
Celebrating Birthdays
Today my sisters and nephew came to celebrate my parent’s birthdays. There seemed to be a theme for each parent. My dad received a box of Star Wars cereal complete with droid marshmallows to go along with the movie and BB8 droid he got the other day. He also received a Star Trek puzzle. A […]
New Birthday Friend
Today is my dad’s 86th birthday. For a gift, my mom wanted to get him some kind of new electronic device. I remembered that at Christmas time, he saw the Star Wars BB8 droid in a catalog and said how fun that would be to have. My siblings and I did a little research and […]
A Friend’s Big Birthday
My mom’s close friend had the big 80 birthday today. Her daughters planned a wonderful party for her, so I took my mom. Unfortunately, my dad was a little under the weather and was unable to go. We met up with the group of family and good friends at one of the birthday girl’s favorite restaurants for […]
Celebratory Day
We had such a great celebratory day today. First we had a birthday party for my sister who is turning 50. She and her husband bought a farm last year and are preparing to get some chickens in the next few months. She has also already purchased all the special seeds for her garden, which […]
Being Creative
This afternoon my sister and her son came over to help get ready for the big party. My other sister is turning 50, so tomorrow we are celebrating her birthday in the early afternoon, then having a Super Bowl 50 party later in the evening. My sister, nephew, mom, dad, and I all were busy […]
Many Well Wishers
So, I turned another year older today. The well wishes started last night when my son, who is in a time zone 2 hours ahead, called at 12:01 his time as it was officially my birthday. That was clever. The morning my mom and dad sang “Happy Birthday” to me. I thanked them for making […]
Birthday Box
Yesterday I received a birthday package in the mail from my son and his family. I wanted to open it with them, so I waited and we were all able to video chat tonight. My grandsons each made me a birthday card with their cute unique little touches. But they both made sure to include […]
