My mom . .
She is a rock . . you cannot give her anything that she cannot handle . .
~ ~ emotionally and physically . . although she is a little slower these days.
She held us all together . . . when my dad died.
~ ~ especially me, when I fell to my knees and could not “get up”.
Here she is . . at her Surprise 88th (Double Infinity) Birthday Party. . .
We children, grandchildren, and great grandchildren admire her deeply . .
~ ~ for her strength, forgiving soul, unselfishness, her happy spirit . .
~ ~ ~ ~ her great outlook on life, and her generosity.
Me and mom . . . about 6 months ago at my brother’s retirement party .
I only hope that I look as good as she does when I am pushing 90 !!! . .
Happy Mother’s Day to all ! ! !


Happy Mother’s Day, Shirley and Mickie. Wishing you both the best, always. Enjoy your special day. Don’t fret, I think you inherited her genes.
Happy Mother’s Day to you and your Mother, Shirley.
