The Birthday weekend and the Memphis kitten

    About a month ago, I felt terrible about the Memphis kitten that I lost at Uncle Dayton's house.  Well last weekend we brought him home.  Anthony's aunt and uncle made friends with him and fed  him for us, so when we went through Memphis to my Aunt's birthday we stopped and picked him up.  We named him SammieDay after the aunt and uncle that took care of him.  He's a boy and seems to be adjusting to life in the house right now.   It's nice to have a new family member and he is my Memphis cat.    
    The weekend we picked him up we went to my aunt's 100 birthday party in West, MS.  It was also my 49th birthday.  My mother turned 95 the next day.  It was a great weekend celebration.   I am so lucky to still have my mama and my aunt.  They both can still walk and can carry on a conversation.   Neither of them are in nursing homes. They have great memories that I enjoy listening to.   The weekend was a little family reunion too with most of us there and also my nephew who has been in the virgin islands for awhile and  has been missed.  I couldn't imagine any better way to spend my 49th birthday.
