Happy Birthday, Mom
I’ve known Mom since I was very young…. er….
I had planned to take Mom out to dinner on Sunday – her birthday is today, but being the only child in town, I can maintain my “most favored oldest child” status by taking her out a few days late. Bro and Sis are too far out of town to take her out.
Imagine my surprise when my sister answers the phone over there – she’s driven into town. Without notifying me. To take Mom out to dinner. *ON* her birthday.
She’s such a sneaky dog. I had to take off work early just to join them. My little sister is devious that way.

I had to work late so all I get to do is call her. And it will be a day late.
*note to self*

I bet your mom is loving still having all her children fighting for attention! LOL

Yup, we cheated. Out of luck, bro.
We pretend-fight over who mom loves best. A few years ago, I remember sitting on the sofa saying, “Mom likes be best” and my sister saying, “Here’s mom, let’s ask her. Who do you like best, Mom?”
She said, “Actually, I don’t like either one of you. I like Stephen best.”
