Happy Birthday, Annie

                                                                 
                                                            The days of "baby yann"

You and Aloise; the smile on both faces are priceless.  Aloise and Brent were so fortunate to have you and the other girls as big sisters (until Brent rebelled with "I have too many mothers!")

These relationships were forged at a tender age and continue to be strong today.   

You've told me that Granny continues to be a real presence in your life ~ that even after her death,  you've sensed her during your trials.

I'm not at all surprised. 

                                         
                                         Happy Birthday, my sweet Ann
