The Young at Heart Great Grandmother

Do you remember what it was like to get your Kid’s Costumes ready for Halloween each year? Remember that big decision to get just the right outfit to wear?

I thought we were done with that long ago. Nope – not true. I have my mother living with us… and guess what at 89 she still has fun. Well kind of…

Last year she dressed up as Superman’s mother. I made a Youtube Video of that event. She had a ball… laughing and made many laugh with it.

This year she was a little apprehensive with what took place. She wasn’t sure that she would do it again.

But she did. With her simple Black suit she bought a pointer hat, a new orange feather scarf and net lace gloves… grabbed her walker and away she went… off to her Senior’s Group to have fun.

They gave her a prize for her sparkle she added on Tuesday morning. She was a real hit at the Dentist’s Office and later at the Doctor’s Office.

She is still fun…

She was a little insecure as we drove to the Senior’s group.

I encouraged her by simply saying… “Mom you have to make a choice. You can be a ‘Happy Heart’ or a ‘Miserable Old Fart’. Ooops using that “F” word here is not usually done by “Christians – i.e. nice people” – but among that group there are some. Ahem!

Mom laughs deeply. Mom is young inside and alive still. Some day she will die and join most of her cohorts. But for now she is still laughing and still going. Truly a Merry Heart – at heart.

Enjoy the photos.
