Favorite numbers

Around the table at Camille's 7th birthday, the question came up "What's your favorite number, Nona?" Well, Mom thought about it. The number 5. It has been the number of a house, of a son's office, of a poem of William Carlos William, of the month of May etc....and when little Camille asked what her favorite number was, she replied 80. Because that is the age of Nona. When I heard that, I thought that was so sweet.

Turning the blog over to Mom

Having written a few posts and collecting many wonderful anecdotes and well-wishes for Mom's birthday, I am turning the blog over to her. I think she will have a lot of fun learning how to blog and keeping up with the latest trends. About a month ago there was an article in the WSJ about blogging and I sent to her and she seemed interested in it.

So...on to the first lesson...since Mom is way ahead of me and asking about settings and layout on the blog site.

I met Camille through mutual friend 4 years ago while my sister-in-law, Pat was visiting from Ireland. Camille is a dynamic lady with a zest for life and a wonderful friend. My sister-in-law bonded with her right away and Camille would be a most welcome gust in Ireland anytime.Congratulations on the blog. What a marvelous way to let her many friends celebrate this milestone with her.FondlyMary Collins Finn
