Annabelle in her high school Christmas pageant. (She's Cindy Loo Who in the center) My mom turns 70 today. Here is a list of 70 things I love about her. At her age she still swims up to 2 miles at a time and takes exercise classes. She never was a picky eater. She loves movies, and gives good reviews. She is not a high-maintenance kind of gal. She laughs a lot. She writes the very best emails about her life. She is an AMAZINGLY TALENTED artist! She isn’t a bragger or a name-dropper. She loves to decorate. And not just for Christmas. She writes, gardens, cooks healthy food, and can sing well. She trusts people. She’s fair and honest with money. She has a unique way of seeing the world. She’s NOT boring. She isn’t a sissy. She’s played sports, been outdoorsy, and did heavy work all her life. She is and always was exceptionally beautiful. She doesn’t sleep too much. (Well, some people do!) She likes to play indoor games...
