I love my mom. One of the greater joys in my life has been to watch her to continue to stay active in her ‘old’ age. I put ‘old’ in quotes, because she would kill me if she ever thought I called her that! That’s right- I’m 59 years old this year, and am still afraid of my mother! She has handled her age with such grace, and at her birthday last year, was still laughing with the rest of us and keeping up her end of the witty conversation. She also loves to play tennis. I’m so proud of her for how she has kept her health and mind sharp over the years, and it is a testament to the fact that she has always taken care of herself and been smart about her decisions.
Last year, I went to Home Security alexandria to feel more at ease about her living at home alone, but she has done so well on her own that I feel like she could be her own security system! She will continue to take on this old age thing by storm, and she’s such a positive example in my life!
