Today is Mom's birthday. I called her today and wished her happy birthday. My first attempt failed due to a busy signal. When I tried the second time I was rewarded with ring, ring, then Mom saying "hello". I learned that Kathleen was calling during my first attempt. Mom said that she talked to her during her entire morning commute. Kathleen has vowed to never call me or Margaret again while she is in her car. Margaret and I were poking fun at her and she made this declaration. I know of at least one exception to her "never". At any rate, I feel so very blessed to be able to call and wish Mom greetings on this, the 89th anniversary of her birth.
