You prove that we all have so much in common, those of us with mothers who were born shortly before or after your mother was born. Our life was very different than yours, but it was none the less very outstanding because us 5 kids had the mother we had. They are our inspiration, AHIA. We are blessed because of them. Thank you again for sharing your Mother with us.
