happy birthday


September, 2009
Grandma wanted to go to Wendover for her 93rd birthday
(and if you didn’t know her, now you do) 
At one point, we walked through the casino together with our arms linked.  We told stories and giggled.  We saw a couple kissing.


She passed away 5 weeks later. 

and 5 months after that, I was having breakfast with a 
Happy Birthday to the most generous, hilarious, incredible
woman I will ever know.

we miss you every day.

  5. Reading this was one of the best moments of the day - right up there with surprising Olivia at school and making Max laugh. Thank you.
