While we are in Arizona we celebrate a few family events. Mother’s Day brings gifts and phone calls to my Mom. My sons call to wish us both well. The flowers are beautiful and we’re lucky that Mom shares the chocolates, bundtini’s and home-made treats that arrive. Oy - my waistline!
May 7th we become great auntie and uncle again with the birth of our nephew Michael’s son. The parents choose to use my father’s middle and first name for the baby, Karl Emmett, but think they will call him Emmett. My brother Dan, Michael and Emmett pose for a three-generation photo.
May 15th we celebrate Mom’s 87th birthday. Early in the day Mom and I enjoy sitting in her new patio furniture, a gift from the family. My cousin Randy and his wife Sally join us her dinner celebration. We have a nice meal and of course, a cake.
