Wishing my husband a Happy Birthday in Heaven

*I'm sharing this post from last year. Today marks Ralph's third birthday in Heaven.

Yesterday my computer popped up a reminder that I didn’t need, telling me that today is my late husband’s birthday,

I celebrated his birthday with him for 35 years ~ and this April 26 is the second year I'm wishing him Happy Birthday in Heaven. The years really do fly by.

Ralph posted this not-too-flattering majority card photo taken on his 18th birthday more than once to mark his special day. 

I much prefer this one:
