No fabulous pictures since Grandmother does NOT LIKE having her picture taken. At all. And she's pretty obnoxious about not even pretending to cooperate any more. It's like trying to photograph a recalcitrant toddler.
She had a very nice birthday. Uncle Computer Pro surprised her by taking her out to lunch, all her grandchildren and her Number 2 son called, her Great-Grandchildren made her cards and pictures (here are things 1 & 2 giving her love and backrubs), Husband brought home flowers for her and I made meat & potatoes for dinner with cake and ice cream for dessert. She was happier than I've seen her in a long time and is excited to have a lovely lunch on Sunday at Aunt Wonderful and Uncle Computer Pro's house with the rest of the in-town family and friends.
Next year she doesn't get dinner until she agrees to pose for a picture.
Wow, your grandmother looks great for 93. She should be proud to take a picture for you :)
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday Molly!
ReplyDeleteYou grandmother looks fantastic!!
ReplyDeleteAnd as a fellow hater of having my picture taken, I would be more than happy to give her a few tips:)
I'm glad she had a good birthday. Our old lady in the family got so mad that she went away for her birthday. So i have no pictures, either!
