Happy 89th Birthday, Mom!!

Woo hoo!
Today is the 89th anniversary of the birth of my mom. She was a child in the Roarin' Twenties; and became a teenager during the Great Depression (she is standing, in back).
During World War II, she wrote letters to servicemen, and married one shortly after the war ended. All of us children were part of the baby boom generation.
In the 1970's, her mom turned 80, and her children started getting married.
Then, about the beginning of the new millenium, her grandchildren started getting married,

and great-grandchildren came to the family.

She still goes camping. She still takes care of a large vegetable garden and numerous flower beds. She's amazing!


She's my mom.
