Happy birthday, Mum.


My Mum was born on this day in 1938.

When trials heavy and sudden, fall upon us; when adversity takes the place of prosperity; when friends who rejoice with us in our sunshine desert us; when trouble thickens around us, still will she cling to us, and endeavor by her kind precepts and counsels to dissipate the clouds of darkness, and cause peace to return to our hearts.

Washington Irving

Raise a small glass ("not too much") of Red Label, and toast her smile, her compassion, and her loving patience.
