We celebrated Mom’s 82nd birthday this Sunday. Lance, Cherise and the kids came up and so did Seth and Erica. We had a split the layer cake for dessert. Among the presents she received was a piece of artwork I did for her called “Grandmothers’ Granddaughters”. We are so lucky to have photos, mother to daughter, for 7 generations. So far, the best we can do for Karen and me is 6 generations each.

Wow, that’s just a wonderful gift. You’re a true artist, Butch.
That is a great gift!
Happy Birthday, Paddy! You’re lookin’ good!
great picture! wish your Mom a happy birthday for m e
Happy birthday grandma! Who is that BEAUTIFUL baby on the end there? 🙂
It is wonderful, she’s been wanting one for years — BUT WHERE THE HECK AM I??????
What a treasure! Both Paddy and the photos. Happy B’day Paddy, Love Sue
