Do You Know What Today Is? Do You? Do You? It's Susan Marilyn Crandall's 80th Birthday (& We Are Under No Circumstance Allowed to Throw a Party)

Happy Birthday, Mom! 

I know. I know. Cynde told me that you wanted nothing but a low-key, uneventful birthday, especially as you celebrate the 80th lap around the sun. But you know me (and you know us), so when Cynde called with an idea, I immediately had the idea in place. First, make a video invitation. Second, create a platform so others can leave notes and upload videos. Third, convince you that I'm working on a memory project for the National Writing Project and need a volunteer to do a test run, and Four, create the documentary. 

We're thankful to so many who were willing to send photos, offer insight, and participate on this celebration. The best part of it...your day doesn't need to be disturbed. You can sit in your chair, plug in your earphones (to tune Papi Butch out), and walk down memory lane.

Your birthday celebration begins this morning...right here. We love you. The good news is when you read the blog this morning, you can yell over to me because I'm home to celebrate with you. I'll send you the direct link so you don't have to participate via my daily blog.

As the sands in the hour glass, so are the days of our lives. Enjoy. This was possible because of friends, family, and neighbors. Here's to you!
