Description
Photo taken with my youngest grand-daughter Ruby when Mum was 90 and on the wedding day of my eldest son Steve (predatron) to Diane (Diandra).
Didn't my mum look amazing for the age of 90, she has always looked very young and her hair even though she is now 93 has not gone white!!!
PLEASE NOTE My cats are actually that big, they are British Shorthair and one of the larger breeds of cats, my dogs are smaller than they, being Bolognese toy dogs, also my mother is only very small, so perhaps the cats look overly big but I did get everything into proportion here :o) x
Original photo of Mum with Ruby taken in my lounge and there were no dogs or cats around at the time, all were added later.
The background is folkvangar's sit with me bgd 01, and the 2 upright chairs from sit with me too. So the whole scene looks rather different from the very first photo I took.
Photo of Mistapus who you see seated on your left was taken as he sat on the bathroom window sil.
Freddie the red silver tabby's photo was taken as he sat on the window sil in the kitchen. Carina sat near Mums left foot was taken in the same position as you see her there, but added later.
Photo of Madelena who you see seated on your right, was taken on my office chair.
Photo of Amy who sits on Mum's knee here, was taken on my office chair.
Neither Amy nor Freddie were born when I took the original photo of Mum with Ruby.
The picture in the background has been covered with Folkvangar's Lavender Art, and the fairy within it I put out of frame (she is my mother's and grand-daughters guardian Angel here).
As you know my mother has dementia now, and does not even know how old she is, and also has forgotten who Ruby is, and tomorrow she will have forgotten her birthday. She will come to mine and my daughter and her family will also join in the celebrations. Mum will be eating all her favourite foods, and hopefully have a wonderful day, surrounded by the ones who love her the most.
Happy Birthday dear Mum, God Bless you, love Janice xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Many thanks to you all for welcoming me back and for leaving all the wonderful and kind comments, and also many thanks to those who liked my last picture so much you favourited it, I am sincerely honoured and overwhelmed by your kindness and all your good wishes.

Good things come in small packages you know, smiles. I did not realize that British Shorthairs are such large cats! No wonder they are so beautiful! The pups are utterly adorable!
