Older than she expected

Today is my grandmothers 85th birthday. Five years ago she said she never expected to make it to 80, and here she is. I have such a strong memory deep in my childhood of her putting me in the front seat of her truck and driving fast through an empty mall parking lot right through a flock of seagulls, watching them all freak out and fly away all around us. She bought me my first video game console.

She loves the apple butter my wife makes. She even returns the jars and asks for a refill.

Happy birthday grandma!
