Welcome chicks!
Today is your day so I will refrain from telling the whole world you exact age, but it’s mighty tempting. Why? Because you are the best looking, most interesting, healthiest sixty-something woman I know. How many people’s mamas take up dancing in their sixties? Or go to the gym five days a week? Nevermind. Nobody would believe me if I told them anyway.
You are such an inspiration to me. You want to experience everything and you treat life like it’s one grand adventure. I hope to be as fearless as you are someday! And to look as good in jeans.
For your birthday, I am sending you a box of homemade jam. (I didn’t quiet get it in the mail yet, but it’s coming. I promise!) I’m also sending you 100 birthday wishes and an IOU for dinner at Joe T’s and coconut cream pie at the Magnolia Dinner the next time I’m in Fort Worth.
Wishing you the best birthday ever, Mama. I love you.

Happy birthday, Susan’s mom! I only met you that one time, at the first shearing, but I was certainly impressed! Have a wonderful day.
Thanks, Susan, I am starting the day off crying with happiness, what a beautiful thing for you to do. (Thanks for not telling my age!). Kiss that new Mule (that looks very much like a horse) and all the goats and sheep, dogs, chickens and that darling horse for me. I am off to the gym!
Love,
Mom
Oh, I forgot! Thanks for the jam in advance!
Happy Birthday, Carol – I met you when we converged on Ft. Worth for the Stock Show! You’re a lovely lady, and I join my Happy Day wishes with Susie’s! Blessings from the other side of the metroplex!
