Happy Birthday, Mom!

Today is my mom's birthday. I came home to surprise her and to help Caroline get ready for dinner: ribs! tomato cucumber salad! fresh bread! broccoli! Mom and Dad arrived and when Mom saw me, she cried. Just a little bit. I am sure that they were tears of joy.

We had a lovely table set...
some bubbly to toast...
and chan tart made by Matie-- the best person to make the best chan tart. Fresh peaches, meringue, and whipped deliciousness.
Mom made her wish
and I devoured the chan tart...
And then Mom opened her present from her kids: pearl and sapphire earrings and pendant that matches the pearl and sapphire ring that Dad gave her.
