The significance of this day is that it happens to be the day that the the woman who gave birth to me was born. While my studies have carried me around the world and far away from my mother I didn't want to let that stop me from spending the day with her.
So I contrived a way to ensure that we had a birthday party, complete with cake, and took in the sites here in beautiful Vancouver BC. We went to Granville Island, visited the Concourse Gallery at Emily Carr University, loitered in front of City Hall, hung around Oak Ridge Mall and strolled through Queen Elizabeth Park. I hope Mom had as much fun as me. :)
Happy Birthday Mom!
