An oldies birthday party

 On my special day, I have the honor to attend two old ladies' 80th and 90th birthday. I could not imagine myself living to that age, but it was extremely inspiring to be part of their celebration. These are my mum-in-law's sisters. Her oldest sister, Anna-mari has been like her mother since their mum passed away when my MIL was only 8 years old. Her eldest sis was about 23 then, and so, she took up the grand role as a mum to all her little sisters and brothers!

Another sister, Aino celebrates her 80th birthday. She is a mum to probably 6 kids, and grandma to many little ones.

There were over 50 relatives from all walks of life, and many parts of Finland, overseas to attend the celebration. A truly cosy, warmth and heartful event.

Who said life must be filled with money to be happy? What else could be happier than living a fulfilled life, with great children, grandchildren, relatives and loved ones.... This is the TRUE meaning of HAPPINESS!
