99!
Guess who is 99 years old today? That's right- UNCLE LOU. He has reached the edge of a century. Almost 100 years old, think of all that his eyes have witnessed. When I called him this morning to wish him a good one, he picked up on the first ring. He's still as spunky as ever. He asked me how I've been, told me that he is waiting for his walk and said he is still hitting golf balls over at the range. WOW. Keep moving must be the answer. When he asked what else I've been doing and I mentioned the store remodel, he said "that's never easy, cause those workers take forever!" Didn't have the heart to tell him we were the workers. As the conversation neared an end, I found myself slowly forming tears. I think that I was so amazed that he answered with such gusto, and just being able to know someone who is almost 100 tugs on my emotional side. Eat some cake in honor of the man





aww.. happy bday Uncle Lou!
