A Very Special Day!

My Mother was 94 years old on July 30th, 2011!

This is a flip calendar that my sister makes for her. It is one of the most helpful aids we have. We always know when the Braves are playing!

She had a wonderful week-end with lots of family calls, visits, and cards!

Beautiful flowers were a big part of her birthday!

94 Roses for 94 Years!

Billy had fun too. He got a new baseball outfil, new cool sandals, pacifers!

God bless your lovely mother!! You're so very blessed to have her 94 years looking as great as this!, I hope I'm so lucky to have my mom at least 94 years, she's going to be "just" 82 in December 27th. Beautiful post and very, very happy birthday and a new year of life with many blessings from God for you, your mother and entire family. Hugs, FABBY

Happy Birthday to your precious sweet Mama! I held my breath when I looked at your mama for she reminded me so much of mine who died in 2003 at age 87 from Alzheimers. I was her caregiver for over 11 yrs. The page calendar is GENIUS!! Does your mother love her doll like it's real or does she know the difference. I enjoyed reading about your mother and looking at her sweet smile. I miss my Mama everyday.

Learn to get in touch with silence within yourself and know that everything in this life has a purpose. There are no mistakes, no coincidences. All events are blessings given to us to learn from. Elizabeth Kubler-Ross
Beginning today, treat everyone you meet as if they were going to be dead by midnight. Extend to them all the care, kindness, and understanding you can muster, and do it with no thought of any reward. Your life will never be the same again Og Mandino
You don't get to choose how you're going to die, or when. You can only decide how you're going to live.
Thank God every morning when you get up that you have something to do which must be done, whether you like it or not. --Charles Kingsley
"Some blessings come soon, some come late, and some don’t come until heaven; but for those who embrace the gospel of Jesus Christ, they come."
A lie goes half way around the world before the truth can get its pants on!..Winston Churchill
Be faithful in the little practices of love which build in you the life of holiness and make you Christlike...Mother Theresa

"Do all the good you can, by all the means you can, In all the ways you can, In all the places you can, To all the people you can , as long as ever you can." John Wesley
Fishing is our handshake, our language. A heritage that binds us together. A passage our fathers took. A journey that lasts a lifetime, that we have begun again with our sons and daughters.
Make every one of your moments count. Relish each day as if there would never be another. When you get the choice to sit it out or dance, I hope you dance.
Love doesn't hurt. It feels really good.
When you know better, you ought to do better.
You have the right to change your mind.
Failure is a way we learn that we are moving in the wrong direction, that we should try something different.
"Say thank you!" Maya Angelou
Happiness is never something you get from other people. The happiness you feel is in direct proportion to the love you give.
Always keep several get well cards on the mantle… So if unexpected guests arrive, They will think you’ve been sick and unable to clean. Maxine
I've learned that you can tell a lot about a person by the way he/she handles four things:a rainy day, the elderly, lost luggage, and tangled Christmas tree lights.
If you want to feel rich, count all the things you have that money can't buy.
You know you're getting old when..your children look middle aged.
You know you're getting old when...You feel like the night after, and you haven't been anywhere.

I believe most people do the best they can with what they have. Sometimes what may seem right at the moment, isn't in the long run. I think we need to forgive when we can, rise above it, learn something and hopefully do better.
