Today is my mom's birthday.  She got the short end of the stick having her birthday so close to Christmas.  This is her first birthday as a grandmother, a role that she has taken with much vigor. She was in town here yesterday watching Jenna while Becky was out, but I didn't get to see her since I was at work.  Hopefully, we can see her this weekend and have some birthday festivities.

As usual, I'm not including a picture for her, for fear of some kind of demented payback since she doesn't like pictures.
