While at my sister's home last week, my mom returned from a trip to Baja Mexico where she did volunteer work at an orphanage. You have to hand to my mom, at 80 years she is still active, albeit slower. She'll be home for about two weeks before driving down to Oklahoma and Texas to visit relatives. I spent some time raiding my mom's button box. Most of these buttons belonged to her mom, my grandmother, and are at the very least 40-45 years old and many much older.
