Marianne, Angela and I took Mom out to dinner tonight for her birthday. Her actual birthday was last Saturday and she turned 87. I have had a hard time with her age this year! I posted on Facebook Saturday birthday wishes to my mom who just turned 67! Well that would be a little difficult since that is my age! Then tonight I pulled out her birthday card that I made last month using the Thinlet Numbers and I had the wrong number .... again! So I just took a Sharpie marker and wrote in "Plus 1" on the card! I've never had a problem remembering her age since there is 20 years between her and I and another 30 between her and my son (who will be 37 in November). Don't know where my brain was this year! She got a couple of surprise phone calls on her birthday Saturday. The first call was from Ashley right before they set sail for the Phillipines. That really thrilled Mom. Then a little later, my son, Jeff, called to wish her a happy birthday.
