Well today is my birth mother’s birthday!
(Yep.. Brian is a lucky guy he has TWO mother in laws!)
Here she is with the youngest quite a while ago. I really like this shot!
While I am bemoaning the fact that I have just reached the point that I have to check the 35-45 box on surveys.. I have no notion of how old my mother is turning today!! Ahh let’s see let’s take a guess.. 30?
Anyway! we must celebrate. We must sooth her with nice words and loads of kids singing Happy Birthday to you out of tune.. especially since my younger brother is going to need about 2 more months of chauffer service as he FAILED his driving test! 😳
That’s ok. She’s cool. She does after all seek out cool yarn for me at local art festivals, and really interesting wine for Brian!
And even though she didn’t have the extreme pleasure of raising me…she did deliver me breech so we must allow many points for that! (See, I was trouble from the start!)
So take time to wish her a Happy Birthday! After all she has to put up with this guy!
(my birth father who she reunited with almost to the day that I found information to reunite me with her! But that is a story for another day!)
Don’t ya love that aran sweater?? Very nice, hand knit for him by his grandmother! Let’s see, my great grandmother knit, my father is a writer… I guess I come by it honestly eh?
