Happy Birthday to all.... such a beautiful photo!
I know what you mean, and empathize, about not being together for birthdays some years. It's like that at my house, too.... and it breaks my heart sometimes, but what can we do? Thank goodness for computers and smart phones and the like, which at least allow us to communicate whenever and wherever.... Not as good as a real, live hug, but something!
Blessings......
