Yesterday, (Tuesday) Terri and I arrived around 8:30 to find Mom’s room empty. We took the opportunity to restock her cookie jar with her favorite raisin-filled cookies and some Peppermint Patties. We also put away the items Sister sent, neatly organizing them in Mom’s drawers with labels for easy access. Many thanks to Terri who did most of the work or I would have been there another hour.
While we were there, I heard Mom out in the hallway, cheerfully singing, “One, two, three, four!” She was doing her physical therapy with Megan and seemed to be having an absolute blast. I can’t recall the last time I saw her in such a great mood! She walked with her walker from one end of the hall to the activity room, singing and chatting the whole way. It was a wonderful morning!
