Once again my mom managed to do a good job celebrating her birthday. Ed, my brother, my cousin and her husband and I met for lunch in St. Jacobs the Sunday before mom's birthday. On the Monday a friend took her out to celebrate. On the Tuesday I went arrived in Burlington and we went for a drive and out for fish and chips. On Wednesday, her actual birthday we met mom's sister and another cousin for lunch. It seems like youngsters and oldsters know how to celebrate.
