Happy Birthday, Maggie!

Today I called my grandmother to wish her a happy birthday. She was so happy with the cards, I cannot tell you. My mother informed me she loves opening cards. (I didn't realize this.) She couldn't open them all yesterday when they arrived because her eyes started to tire reading them. She wanted to know how she could thank you. I told her that if she sent me a note, I'd post it here for you. So you have that to look forward to. She was raving about how beautiful they all were. And from Michigan! And Virginia! She really doesn't understand the internet at all. So when she finally realizes there are cards from abroad, she's going to die (of happiness)!

You all have really made an old lady's day.

Oh, and in honor of her birthday, how about Maggie Mondays for the rest of the month?

You need to get someone to take a picture of Maggie surrounded by all of her cards!! And you know, I am all for bringing back Maggie Mondays - even if for a limited time!

Yes, definitely take a picture of Maggie and all her cards. I'm glad that that she enjoyed getting all of them! Give her another Happy Birthday from the Internet (I know I already sent a card but tell her it's from my daughter, Catie)!!
