Memories....




If my mom was still with us...


She'd be 100 years old today...

Happy Birthday Mother!!!
(yes...that's me too!!!)



If my dad was still with us...


He'd have been 100 on May 24 this year...


My mom passed away just a few months short of her 90th birthday...
and my dad was 83...

I can't believe it's been such a long time...

I'm the youngest of 3 daughters...
an "oops" baby...when my parents were nearly  40...

that makes me...
...well...
let's not go there!!!

  3. I wasn't so much an oops as an "oops, it's a another girl." You have your mother's lovely smile.
