Today is Aunt Vi’s 103rd birthday.
At age 95.
It’s her first up in heaven with all her sisters and most of her brothers, plus her mom and dad who she talked about regularly and missed every day.
96th birthday
I’ve heard about some of the parties the family had when they were all younger. I can almost imagine the fun they’re having up there today, dancing and hugging, playing cards and softball and telling stories while they enjoy a huge potluck.
On her 100th birthday.
I’m sure everyone there is glad to have her back in the fold, but we sort of miss her back here.
101st birthday.
Still, I know her 103rd birthday is infinitely better than her 102nd was.
102nd birthday.
Happy Birthday Aunt Vi, now you’re young again and will be forever.
The light shines on her now.

102 years is pretty long. I’m sure she is in a far better place for 103.

Yes she is. She had been missing her mother a whole lot, and now they are together again.

Aw, I feel like I knew your Aunt Vi, too! I know you miss her, but I’m glad you can envision her dancing, happy, young, and healthy in the Afterlife.

What a stylish woman. I’m sure she’s responsible for some extra light from above. She lived life with pizzazz, you go Aunt Vi.
