Mom is 98 years old!






It was nearly 70 degrees yesterday afternoon so I took Mom on a little outing to the sculpture park -- it's just a block away from the nursing home. I told her it was her birthday photoshoot. So as we went around the park we stopped now and then for her "portrait." I printed an 8x10 collage of some of the pictures so she can experience the outing again and again and again ...that's one of the only advantages I know of dementia -- you can't remember what you've heard or seen so the world is new every few minutes. A lady saw me taking pics of Mom and offered to take one of us together -- people really are nice (most of the time).
