We did the same thing with my grandmother's picture when she turned 90 a couple years ago. She got a lot of cards and we had a party for her, not huge, but large enough that some people she hadn't seen in years came by to see her on her birthday.


@Nammu I really hate hospital dreams. I have both a regular hospital like I'm being prepped for surgery or something or even worse, the mental health hospital. Not fun.
