It’s our grandmother’s 88^th birthday today! That’s her over there with my son. The photo was taken few months ago.

What is she up to at 88? Well, Lola, as we Filipinos call our grandmas, still cooks for us and loves her little garden. She likes flowers so much, especially the roses. She has the pink ones, the red ones and some yellow roses. Jeff is somewhat sharing her interest and sometimes asks her about gardening.

So, to you Lola, a very happy birthday!
