September 4th update

Yes, it’s true I’m the BIG 4 0 today! I know some of you thought I was a lot younger! You’re only as old as you feel or ACT!   With everything we have been through I’m thankful for each day especially birthdays!

Bennett is doing good.  He was a little tired tonight and went to bed early. His baseball game tonight was rained out so it gave us a chance to have birthday dinner at Red Lobster. He was disappointed that they didn’t play because we were playing West Frankfort and Bennett was going to start the game as pitcher.

I love the birthday card Bennett gave to me:

I love you as my Mom–

the wonderful woman who has done more for me

than any other person in the world.

I love you as my friend –

someone who understands me, takes time to listen,

and truly cares about how I’m doing.

I love what you’ve made me –

a happy child, a grateful adult,

and someone who will always look up to you.

Happy Birthday Mom,

Love Bennett
