Well it's Saturday again and time for me to contribute to Saturdau Centus with Jenny
Our prompt this week is an 80th birthday balloon . For some reason I cannot add photos, hope you have a good imagination.
Prompt: "My mother turned 80 today."
Number of words: 105 words (including the five word prompt)
July 30th was the date my mum turned 80, invites sent to her family and friends asking them to bring a memory of their relationship to her.
I chose the photo of her 50th birthday thats my abiding memory of my mum.
She is sat surrounded by the fifty red roses my father gave her.
I don't know what the cake would be as sadly this party is all in my head , you see my mum died when she was fifty. Another victim of Cancer. She would have been 80 in 2008.
but sadly I can't say "my mum turned 80 today"
.
Ok that is it from me. Just popping over to read other thoughts .
