Happy Birthday, Mom!!!

It was in 1922, eighty-six years ago today, in a small farmhouse in Clinton that Mom was born. It was the same place her mother was born twenty years earlier. There are so many things Mom has seen and experienced during those years. Happy Birthday, Mom! We love and appreciate you so very much!

Seriously, I mean SERIOUSLY....!!!! That elicits serious sobbing from me! I am absolutely choked up. The pictures and story line were beautiful...and so much of Mom's story is my story. We are intertwined. And when you added "Consider the Lilies"...I was a goner. Whew. I saw pictures of our little Boise family that I don't think I've seen since they were first taken. Wow. Even a couple of Baby Lisa pictures. And look-a-like dresses for Denice and me that Yvonne made. Oh, I was so proud of that dress and my baby sister! Wow. Thanks Glenn, for being our family historian! Unbelievable. And Oh, How I DO LOVE Mom!!! What a beautiful mother she was and is. Priceless.

Thank you! Love, Jane
