To my Mama

Today is my mother's fifty-fifth birthday (well, only for three more minutes where she lives, but still). I've decided to mark the occasion by posting one of the only pictures I have of just the two of us (I find this fact to be unusual). Here you see twenty-seven-year-old Mom, back when she wore quasi-cowboy shirts and glasses the size of dinner plates, with one-year-old(ish) me, back when I wore my dinner all over my face and looked like my Grandpa. (Those of you who've seen what I look like now know that I look more like Mom than Grandpa now.)

Happy birthday, Mama. And Happy Being Able To Order Off The Seniors' Menu at Denny's Now.

I heard that she could order off the Denny's Senior menu now. Exciting! Seniors and childrens menu items always seem more enticing than regular menu items. I think it's the free dessert that usually accompanies them.

Thanks everyone. After all the holiday eating and especially the birthday brunch at the hotel Sask, I need to start eating senior portions!
