Happy Birthday Nanny!


Why blog when the person you are blogging about will most likely never see it?
Because a Nanny Birthday is nothing less than momentous occasion.

Helen V. Hickman turns 91 today.

I asked her once what it was like being born in 1919. She said,"the stone tools were hard to use and living in caves was probably the worst part...that and the fear of the mighty
Tyrannosaurus Rex."

Ok, while that may not be completely true, what is true is that my Nanny has played an immense role in my life. Her love and support throughout the years. Her laugh (cackle?) and smile is always near to brighten everyone's day and we as a family as supremely blessed to have such a experienced leader and matriarch to guide us and to love us as she does.


Nan,
Tara and I love you and we miss you very much. May this birthday be one of your greatest. Know that our thoughts are with you on this day...your day. Come visit us soon.
