Happy Birthday to you, Happy Birthday to you

Seventy Six years since the day you were born.
Seventy Six toots on that ole birthday horn.

Seventy Six candles on your birthday cake.
Seventy Six hugs sent to heavens gate.

Seventy Six smiles thinking of you today.
Seventy Six tear drops each and every day.

As today comes and goes and tomorrow too.
Seventy Six years was just way to few.

Love you mom,
Kathy

Happy Birthday to Martha! Beautiful poem, Kathy. I hope you don't mind that it brought tears to my eyes. Missing Martha, too. Thinking of you today and sending up a prayer for your hurting heart. ~Bev

Thank you both. Today for some reason was a tough one. But it's all good. I watched her struggle through the sickness and that was worse than any of this.
