A birthday riddle

What has 16 phone calls, nine visitors, 29 cards, two flower arrangements, three cakes, and 101 candles?

That's right....Grandma's 101st birthday!

The place has been rocking all day, either with phone calls or visitors.

Non-stop I tell ya! Sometimes the phone rings while there are visitors here, and then the old gal doesn't know which way to turn. When the visits include children it's impossible for her to hear the caller for all of the noise, so the conversation is almost worthless. Still, for all of her protesting, she is having fun.

I can only imagine how much more of this will carry forward to tomorrow! She'll need the next 363 days to recover for her 102nd!

Happy birthday, Gram!
