HAPPY BIRTHDAY HATTIE !! 2012
Today’s post is a rerun, first posted several years ago in honor of my paternal grandmother. On top of that, it’s a day late. From what I remember of her, she would be happy to have the greetings and tardiness would be overlooked with that smile I remember so well. Her birthday was November 10,…

HAPPY BIRTHDAY ERIN LEE!!!
Today we celebrate Erin Lee, born 28 years ago tonight, just shy of midnight, changing my world forever. I knew she was going to be Erin Lee, no ultrasound needed. When I told my obstetrician that I was embroidering her Christmas stocking and already had her name across the top; he reminded me that…

A Noteworthy Day Addendum
I do not believe I’ve ever done this before, but then my mom is a fairly new blog subscriber, and that should explain what’s to come. Having located the “Noteworthy” post yesterday, she called with a few corrections, or should I say clarifications, which I asked her to email rather than just tell me over…

Happy Birthday, Mom!!
Regular readers know I favor Special Days. Often they are birthdays of people important to me. And that is the subject of the day – the birthday of a woman about whom I have rarely posted, other than teasing about the habits I believe I inherited from her. Today, my mom, Carola Esther Buelow, is…
