​

We celebrated my mom’s birthday, this week.      

She saved cardboard from one of the boxes from Christmas 2016 . She wanted to use it as magic slide to revisit her childhood.   

My oldest daughter, stood as sentry, poised for her safe return.

My mom lived through WWII – and like the energizer bunny she’s still going strong.  

Mother doesn’t know it…but I gave thanks for her still being  here.

It’s her celebration but I got the gift of learning about the woman inside the mom. 

Happy Birthday, Mother!
