Happy Birthday, Mom

We celebrated my mother's 80th birthday today.

Over 60 family and friends came to honor her life, which, as my uncle put it was one that's been loving, caring, and capable. He also called her a "world-class worrier" - one who not only worries about those she loves, but also reaches out to them with caring and capable support.

She also lives with a philosophy that "life is short, and we must do what makes us happy."

She apparently gets her happiness from worrying, caring, loving, and helping.

Happy Birthday, Mom.

Worry on.
