Say Something Nice...Make Someone's Day

I got to school early to set up yesterday...lots of teachers go in early...
Several asked about my mom and expressed warm wishes and kind thoughts.
Mr. K, one of our young social studies teachers said,
"Well, if she's anything like you...she's a tough old cookie!"

Old?
I still took it as a compliment.

'Tough old cookie', she is.  Emily and I spent the day at the hospital yesterday.  She has tubes and wires everywhere...but still told us a joke.  She asked about Emily's spring break trip and her studies.  She wants to hear all about Amy too...her spring break trip and her schooling.

She thinks she needs some more long sleeve shirts for spring and she needs to remember that it's not this month...but next month that she volunteered to bake a cake for the Senior meeting.  Ok...we can do that.

Thank you to everyone that has sent hugs and support.
 I appreciate all of your kind comments.
