Hi gals, we had a wonderful day yesterday (Monday 29th January) for Mum's 90th birthday luncheon. Everyone came except for Steve (Amy's husband who is in India on a 10 day motor cycle trip with his mates) and Ben's partner who works in Age care disability.
It was lovely at the Belmont Yacht Club and Mum enjoyed seeing all the family, albeit not knowing their names anymore, but she had a great time. We tired her out I think. She's so little now at 50kg (7 and a half stone).
It's so hard to get Mum to smile as she doesn't know where she is to look and often looks away.
Love Chris

We were at a 90th dinner last Saturday night, my husband's aunty.
Love to you and your family
how wonderful you were able to celebrate this special birthday with each other,. Thank you for sharing the pictures, so we could see the love and joy of almost the whole family. And you did a lovely job to do her make-up and hair , so she looks adorable at her party. Hugs, love Gerry.
Thanks for your kind words about Mum, she doesn't remember much these days, so sad. Love Chris
