My father's real (aka Western calendar) 100th birthday Login/Join

Many of you probably remember our extended family celebrating my father's 100th last year that was based on our tradition. Well, a year later, it's his real 100th, and I'm thrilled to report that the man is still doing well.

No one else is around this time, except me and Mrs Q. But, we enjoyed the quietness and the excellent food Mrs Q cooked up. The lemon grass flavored salty crabs were particularly delicious.

I think you're lucky. My mother croaked a couple of months short two years ago. He's smiling so I think we can infer that he's happy. Many of the oldie's don't seem so happy. With age often comes pain and suffering. Hope he makes it to 200 and is still happy.

How awesome is that? Happy Birthday to your dad. He certainly doesn't look to be 100. Glad to see that a good time was had by the three of you.
