Today, December 7th, is my mom’s birthday, so I thought I’d offer up a couple pics.

Here I am with my mom on the right, and my aunt Pat on the left:

That shot was taken in Chicago just after WorldCon.  (Yes, I had the hat with me, though I didn’t wear it much due to how warm the convention area was – I would’ve been sweating like a pig if I had!)

Here is a shot of my mother SPOON FEEDING MILK TO A FREAKING CAT!

SIGH.

And so you don’t think she’s not an equal opportunity cat spoiler:

They are now trained to know the sound of the milk carton being removed from the refrigerator means they (should) get some milk.

Double Sigh.

Happy Birthday Mom! ^_^
