Happy Birthday Olive!

July 17, 1944. Today in 1944 she was born (making her 62 years). She was given the name Olive May Foreman, named after our father's younger sister Olive who died at the age of 19. She is the third child in a family of eight; one child died in infancy. She's under the sign of Cancer. She certainly was a cutie and grew up to be quite a hottie as you can see.
She's come a long way, taken the tough road but is still here with us. Hopefully, with the help of Yahweh, or Great Spirit or whatever each of us calls Him (or Her) she'll be with us a good deal longer. That goes for any and all of us, if you consider what's going crazy around this world these days.
My plan for today is to celebrate Olive's being and enjoy a dinner out. We may stop by and visit her daughter Jo Anne and the new granddaughter, just born this June past. It's the third grandchild for Olive (that I am aware of; Olive's son Barney has a child from an earlier relationship and is currently married with no children). Jo Anne has a first born child, Kaeden, who is 7 or 8 I believe. A little girl to join this happy family. Sorry, I am not quite certain of the baby's name but will provide that information on a later post. She was born at the hospital where I work and so I had the pleasure of holding the little angel a day after she was born (a very healthy 9 lbs!)! Jo Anne is a very good momma; I give her credit for all the good work she does with her very active Kaeden - she'll have her hands full with the two of them.
Anyway, back to the purpose for today's post. Today is Olive's birthday and congratulations on this milestone. She is not in the very best of health and so hopefully she'll have many more. At least she stopped smoking for almost two years - and that is somethin'!!! HAPPY BIRTHDAY OLIVE!!!
