askchar) 75th birthday. Yay, Mom!
Here a few good reasons to celebrate this momentous occasion:
I get my love of chocolate and my squished little toe from her.
She taught me how to manage money.
She taught me how to fight fair.
She believes in me.
She took me to the library every week when I was a kid.
She has opened her home up, again and again, to all sorts of people, which gave me a much wider view of the world growing up.
She understands the importance of travel and education.
She taught me how to make hollendaise sauce and eat an artichoke.
She goes to Curves for Women several times a week to weight lift stay in shape (what a terrific role model).
She's been married for over fifty years, and she's shown me how a good marriage grows and changes.
She can laugh at a joke on herself.
She is a terrific Nana to my kids.
