Happy 90th Birthday Dad

Birthday banners and balloons adorn the wall
Family and friends will be gathering in the hall
How we will enjoy the time we are together
Your face will be smiling whatever the weather

It’s not every day you reach the age of ninety
We will raise a glass of champagne to you
Eat delicious food and be happy
It’s a time for celebration and to say
HAPPY BIRTHDAY DAD

Thanks Tim. There is longevity on my mother's side of the family too her great great aunty lived to 111 and 121 days and was in the Guinness book of records - OK as long as you still have all your faculties I guess and your health is good! Hugs Jan xxx
