Celebrating My Mom's Birthday

My mom will be 79 tomorrow and so I went and celebrated "her" today.  I knew that Tuesday would be busy and by going a day earlier I had her to myself.  I brought lunch and it was yummy.  I stopped at Zuppa's and got us each a Triple Cheese Panini and some Tomato Basil Soup.  I also stopped and got my mom her favorite pie which is Lemon Meringue.  She was thrilled that I brought lunch.  She even had enough left over for dinner or another lunch.  It was fun spending a few hours with my mom.

She wanted me to make a chocolate sheet cake for her to take to school tomorrow to share with the class that she volunteers in.  I was happy to do that for her.  While the cake was baking I cleaned her bathroom for her which I know she really appreciates.  We visited for a bit while the cake cooled but once I had it frosted I knew it was time to go.  My mom was telling me about a great Aunt of hers who had told my mom when you get older you just get tired easier....(I paid attention)

I love my mom.  She's a good lady with a caring heart.  She's fun and upbeat too.  She gets a lot accomplished and has many talents.  She seems content and happy this birthday!  I hope we get to celebrate her for many more years!  She's pretty darn healthy so I could see her living for many years to come....I sure hope so!
