Happy Birthday, Gramma!!



G - Generous! Always hooking me up with a Pace's Diet Coke, the kids new jammies, and beautiful quilts for everyone! Also, Giving. She gives her time to everyone, even if it means she doesn't get any left for herself.
R - Republican! And all the good that it entails:) And Righteous. She definitely always has the Spirit with her. She has high standards that she doesn't change for any one or any occasion.A - Advisor! Any problem, she has a suggestion and it always seems to work.
M - Mother! She still takes care of her kids and worries about all of us. Call when you get home!
M - Meticulous! Never a detail left out. If you don't believe me, have her teach you how to quilt;) Such a great quality, especially for Bill and his doctors. She has them spell out the words their using so she can get it right. Smart!
A - 'A' Student. She is so smart, always knows the latest studies, news, and reading the latest books. Which is helpful for me because it saves me from reading them and I can just get the condensed version from her. While she's driving to work.
Thanks for being such a great example, mom. I love you and hope one day I can be just like you!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY!
