WOW

WOW

What an exciting 90th birthday! Friends, neighbors, cards, flowers, plants, gift certificates, even one of my favorite pies from Kalona, good wishes and a nephew who flew from Houston, TX to spend the weekend with me. Neighbors who wrote a birthday poem for me and phone calls from out of state friends.

Thank you, thank you, thank you!
