This is a picture I took of our mother while we were visiting at Roger Einhaus's. She is coming to visit this weekend. She called and asked if she could visit while Matthew and Patty spent the 4th in Tyler, Tx. Mother is always a welcome guest. Anyway, I fell asleep early last night watching TV. A very loud and annoying ringing awoke me from my slumber. It was mother saying she had changed her mind and would stay home. I was so sleepy, I could not think of a very good argument to get her to change her mind. So today the first thing I thought about was what could I say to get mom to change her mind. Jerry and I are going to one of Jerry's co-workers for a bit on the 4th. His partner is picking us up. He drives very fast and I am not too keen on riding with him. So, we had already told him that I would be taking my own car since mom would be here. When I called and told her I needed her for this reason, her motherly instinct must have kicked in because she said she would get ready and come. What a wonderful 4th of July I will have this year.
