Granny and her first great grand baby Margaret
Granny is 79 years young today. As always, she’s made her own cake and has it ready for all of us to come by and get a piece after work. She had me pick up a 7 and a 9 candle over the weekend so she could blow out the candles. The Deer Hunter and I are gifting her with a load of mushroom compost for her garden. She asked for it saying “You don’t have to get me nothing, but if you’re going to I’d really like some of that mushroom compost. If I don’t get some my garden ain’t going to be worth a flip this year.”
Happy Happy Birthday Granny, we love you.

Happy Birthday, lovely Granny! How blessed you are to have little Miss Margaret to help you celebrate! I love the idea of your baking your own cake and inviting folks to share it — I’m going to do that this year on my birthday!
Happy Birthday to Charles and Gazzie Truett Jenkins’ baby girl!
Happy Birthday!
Happy Birthday Granny!
Have an enjoyable birthday! :-\
Happy Birthday Granny, its my birthday too, and I am 79 just like you, so you are my birthday buddy and I live in the Sandhills of North Carolina. Let’s just enjoy this beautiful day and know that we are so thankful!
Happy Birthday Granny!! I hope you get a log of Hugs today and a lot of Happy Birthday singing.
Happy Birthday , Granny ! Hope your day is Wonderful !
As long as Granny is willing and able to raise a garden, I hope you all will get her anything she needs to make it grow. Happy Birthday, Granny! I wish I lived close enough to come by and get a piece of that cake!
Save those 7 and 9 candles so you can reuse them when you bake your own cake at age 97.
Happy Birthday! May God Bless you with many more.
That’s a lovely picture of Granny and her namesake, Margaret. I send beautiful birthday thoughts to Granny!
Isn’t it strange that over time our wants tend to gradually fade. Concurrently with that the value we place on friends and family increases. Seems we would live a better life if we started out that way.
Happy birthday, ma’am. Hope your garden this year is worth much more than a flip with the mushroom compost.
Happy Birthday Granny, we hope you have a wonderful Birthday and many more to follow!
I turned 79 in December and woke up with a thought. Oh My Gosh I am going to be 80 this year. Where did 80 years go??
So much life has been lived and I have lots more I want to do. 79 sounds young but for some reason 80 sounds old to me. I know age is just a state of mind and mine insists on being 40. Sounds like Granny is also 40. Hope her garden is a great success this year. God’s Blessing on her and her garden.
Awwww, well bless her heart and what a sweet photo! She deserves that mushroom compost for a beautiful garden! I hope she has a wonderful birthday! Enjoy the birthday cake, I’m sure it is delicious!
Happy Birthday Granny! Enjiy your day
Happy Birthday to you ,pretty lady! What a pretty ggbaby too.
