This got me to thinking though, maybe if we can post our LO's

upcoming birthdays a few weeks in advance some of us in the group can

send birthday cards so that they receive a sizable stack of mail that

can be read to them on their birthdays. Just a thought, what do we

think group?

Hi all, I wanted to share some happy news as I always seem to be

sharing down stuff. So here goes.

Mum turned 81 yesterday and had a really great day. We had a family

dinner out (if you can imagine) with my husband, our kids and my

sister (the real one, not the one her crew created). Mum got all

dressed up and was so happy to be the centre of attention.

Mum's crew came with us of course, but apparently they sat at a

different table. Luckily that was ok with mum, she was just having

such a good time. I think all the activity, people, atmosphere and

family were such a good distraction for her that she wasn't as " tuned

in " to the " waves " as she ususally is.

The food was great and mum had a really good appetite for a change.

She usually eats like a bird. She enjoyed every bit, and even had

dessert. We all took lots of pictures and had lots of laughs.

I am so happy that she had such a good day, even the weather was

nice.

Today I feel so good, like I haven't felt in a long time, and it's

because, for a good long while yesterday, it was kinda like having my

old mum back. I will remember this birthday with smiles.

Thanks for listening, I wish all of you a great happy day.

It's so great that your Mum enjoyed her birthday so much...and you

were able to enjoy it too. It really means so much to see our loved

ones happy, doesn't it? Even if it is just for a few moments. Mom

laughed last night and it made me so glad to see that. It has been a

while.

My Mom's birthday is September 11 and she will be 86. I pray that

she will be able to enjoy our family get-together. I know it is

going to be a lot more difficult getting her to my brother's house,

where we are going for a cookout. My brother's birthday is the 9th

so we always celebrate both together. Maybe she will have a good day

that day.

Bless you for making your Mum's birthday so special....

Birthday cards for our loved ones are a cool idea. Count me in.

By the way, what does LOL mean? It's appeared in a number of posts.
