Amy,

You are adorable! I would want you for a caregiver anyday! Sounds

like you have it under control! I am sure your Mom appreciates the

way you take care of her. It is nice you make her laugh and have fun

while doing the caregiving. Doing it this way might make it where she

cooperates more also.

Love ya,

Belinda
