Happy Birthday to My Dad

Today my mom and sisters are coming up for a visit. I've made a strawberry jello poke cake topped fresh strawberries, as it's my late father's birthday. He would have been 82 today. If we start to feel sad, we have to shake it right off, because that's the last way he'd want us to feel. Be happy, be together, I hear him saying in my mind. And that's exactly what we'll do. :)

Thanks, Nan. It was such a bittersweet day, but full of wonderful memories and even a bit of laughter.
