Happy 70th Birthday, Mom!



You've mastered seven decades and you've shown us how it's done --
By working hard and living right and having lots of fun.

You focus on the positive and hold your family dear.
We love you for your tender heart. That's why we've gathered here.

So sit back while we celebrate the memories we share,
As we say 'Happy Birthday' here and show how much we care!
.
Ah, sisterhood! With Linda you've shared great curiosity.
A bond between twins, none other can compare. She is missed indeed!
 
You truly value nature, and you've passed that love along.
Your children learned those skills from you.
We'll keep them going strong.

You gave us roots, when raising us, and also gave us wings.
Self-confident and principled, your fine example rings.
.
And now, we've saved the best for last -- The next fine generation,
For Frankie, Caleb & Abigail, it's mutual admiration
 

In the weekend celebration of Mom's birthday we enjoyed a fabulous dinner at Santa Fe Cattle Co. in Broken Arrow. We had one section of the restaurant to ourselves and laughed and enjoyed each others company along with fabulous filets!  Happy Birthday, Mom, I love you!
 
Honor your father and your mother,
so that you may live long in the land
the Lord your God is giving you.
Exodus 20:12
