For Mother

Today, 81 years ago that little girl in the above picture
was born.
She is about 5 in the above picture with the person
who meant the most to her growing up:
her Grandmother.

Many childhood memories and a few adult ones as well.
***
I feel fortunate to still have both of my parents to celebrate
birthdays with. I don't take it for granted in any way.
***
My Mother is still blessed with great health and she is quite robust
for her 8 decades.
Longevity has always been a hallmark of her hertiage so I hope
she has many more years to come.
Happy Birthday Mom!
