SO - still very concerned about her appearance, still has an eye for the gentlemen, still likes to ask people how old they think she is, because at 91, she looks 70, so adores their shocked reaction!Belindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03470745960964423207noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8792349136622990269.post-58685619615118649332011-01-18T11:44:40.991-05:002011-01-18T11:44:40.991-05:00She is so lovely.

I've softened over the years and appreciate seeing her so much more these days, and her mild dementia and the medication has softened her too.Deborah Ripleynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8792349136622990269.post-25796071266407085602011-01-17T12:09:46.246-05:002011-01-17T12:09:46.246-05:00I enjoyed this entry so much.

Even her blanket draped around her is elegant in its nonchalance. <br /><br />I so understand watching one's parents and seeing oneself there. Sometimes it saddens me, and other times, it just makes me realize, corny as it seems, that maybe they're somehow still going to be "living on" through me. <br /><br />Your mom is beautiful, Chris.suehttp://www.abrushwithcolor.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8792349136622990269.post-13609740969958287662011-01-17T09:45:43.809-05:002011-01-17T09:45:43.809-05:00I can see your face in hers.
