Oh my goodness! I think I look more like my mother every day! I know that I am not pretty, but I do think I look happy. I feel that happy people have their own “pretty” and I am content with that! I don’t wear makeup. I never did and now I find it VERY uncomfortable. I do take a lot of selfies - just not by myself. My favorite selfies are with my grandchildren, and I think they like to take them also. I want them to remember what I looked like and how much I loved them. I hope it shows in those pictures!

I have always loved photographs. From the time I was six, I would search through boxes and drawers to get all of the old photos from my parents. I remember telling my dad that I would take good care of them and I always have. Some of the old photos still have my very childish handwriting on the back telling me who this person is. I am so glad that I did that! After I started working on my genealogy, those limited notes were very helpful!

I hope that my family will continue taking photos long after I am gone. They are such wonderful treasures!

Always remember that Dr. Seuss had one thing right for sure - It’s true. No one is youer than you!
