A young 80-year-old!

Today we went to an 80th birthday celebration for my sweet and funny stepmother, Mary. What a woman! She's the kind that makes you look forward to being 80! Here she is (on the left) talking with a friend she has had since they were 16 years of age!
Later on another main attraction arrived at the party - Paityn Lily Smith, my niece Marcy's newborn baby. We were all so delighted to get a chance to hold and cuddle this sweet little bundle.

And here are the proud parents, Scott and Marcy, with their sweet, little bundle of joy. They just glow with pride!

What a beautiful blessing this baby is! Also, such a blessing in the circumstances.

Mary has a lovely family of men. What fun! Happy birthday to Mary!

Her children rise up and call her blessed!

What a wonderful legacy and example she has set for her entire family!

I have to tell you something so funny. I was showing Olivia the picture of Paityn and she gave the usual "AHH, she's so cute". Then she said, "she's praying to God!". The picture does look like it, especially to a four year old!
