Not quite.
Happy Birthday, Mom!
For many years, my mom was 29, one more time.
Well, that's what she told us anyway,
year after year, after year.
I don't know if she wants me to disclose how old she is today, so I won't.
I will tell you that she is older than 50, younger than 70...
and will be younger than 70 for a little longer than she thought!
Lately she has been more forthright with her actual age (giving up "29 one more time").
However,
all this past year she has been believing,
and telling all who ask,
that she is one year older than her actual age.
In other words, she forgot how old she was...
or wasn't!
She just recently discovered, by way of help from my dad, that she will be turning the age that she thought she was already.
Pretty funny!
Who says we only get to go around once?!
My mom gets to repeat age ? for one more year.
Have a terrific birthday, Mom!
I'm sure you and dad will enjoy the day together.
Another birthday shout out:
Happy Birthday to Rachelle (my brother Steve's wife) also.
She may very well be 29 one more time, I'm not sure.
Rachelle, do you tell your age?
Steve, Rachelle and their new computer have become regulars on my blog just recently.
I hope your birthday is wonderful also.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY GRANDMA!! I will call you tonight to say hi. I have a new phone #. I hope you have a great birthday. I miss you and Grandpa very much. I love you both, and hope you know how much I appreciate all you have done for me.
Even though I haven't met you yet, Happy Birthday to Rachelle. I hope it's a good one!

Happy birthday Mom & Rachelle,
Rachelle and I had good time visiting you on your 29th birthday! The kids had a great time running through the house and eating dad's pretzels.

Thanks everyone for the birthday wishes. It turned out hectic at first, and then I picked Steve up from work and he made it a great day for me. I'm so lucky to have him! I love you're blog it's so entertaining, and fun. Love you all!
