Happy Heavenly Birthday Tata
It’s hard to believe this was the last birthday we got to celebrate with you 5 years ago. I remember you mustering up the energy to sit in this chair with your grandchildren & let us sing Happy Birthday. 🎵
You were always so full of energy & love, that even in sickness you still figured out ways to give us all pockets & glimpses of hope and, dare I say, joy amongst the grief & heartache of what we knew lay ahead so much sooner that we wanted.
5 years later our world is certainly not the same without you & how I so wish I could see you, hug you, hear you laugh that boastful joyous laugh & tell you happy birthday as you respond back telling me, “I’m beginning my 84th year & I have everything I need right in front of me!” 😊
But now, also 5 years later, I’m beginning to realize more & more how you ARE always with us.🙏🏼 And how you still give us glimpses of joy & hope daily — I see it in our children, in my niece & nephew, in little signs everywhere 🪶 & most especially, in my heart ♥️ because you never left there, nor will you ever.
Srecan Rodendan my dear Tata. You are deeply loved & celebrated forever & ever.💖
