Just Like a Puppy

Taking Mom somewhere is just like taking along a puppy. Do you know how everyone is attracted to puppies? That's my mom!

We went with friends to a wine tasting party at a local winery. Drinking. Eating. Listening and dancing to music. And of course, people watching. Over the course of two hours a hairdresser was insisting on cutting and coloring Mom's hair. Her friend wanted to be adopted by Mom. A man asked her to dance since he saw her clapping hands to the music. One of the caterers said that there was a small tub of delicious, not-for-sale Zinfandel ice cream set aside with her name on it to take home. And the chocolate lady gave her free truffles.

My mom has been the belle of the ball her entire life. Just like a perpetual puppy.
