Happy Birthday Mom!

My mom turns 70 today. It's hard to believe how fast time marches on; memories from the past are in my thoughts, like when we kids would come home from school on a winter day, met by the smell of freshly baked bread. Or the smell of her perfume mixed with a faint smell of smoke when she and my father came home from a party. While those memories are all in the past, they are still comforting to me. Here's to many more birthdays Mom!
