Mom’s Friends

It will come as no surprise to anyone who knows her, or to anyone who reads this blog regularly, to hear that Mom has some really great friends.

How great?

Well, one of them just had an operation the other day, and went out and got Mom a cake and brought it to her.

What kind of a friend would bring a cake to a woman who can’t eat anything? A really great one. Here’s the cake.

gtcake3How awesome is that? Pretty damn awesome, that’s how!

And look at those cards. Those are not ordinary birthday cards. Those are cards for somebody whose friends hold her in pretty high esteem.

So she had a pretty nice birthday, all in all, and she hasn’t even had her party yet. 🙂

So happy day-after-your-birthday, Mom. You’re a quality Mom.
