	My lovely nan is celebrating her 102nd birthday today. All the residents at the home call her gran but she loves it when they call her young Edie. She is such a lovely lady. Chris

	Thank you all for your very kind wishes. I am so proud of her and I love to see her face light up when she knows it's me visiting her. Yes she's seen many things and at times had a very hard life. She has been a wonderful help to me in tracing my family history and I've been able to back up everything she has told me. I'm glad I started 4 years ago and not now as she wouldn't be able to help me as much now. I've visited her this morning and will go back to share a birthday tea with her and will be able to update her photo of one taken today. Chris

	Happy 102nd Birthday young Eadie! <3 :-) It must be great Chrissie to still be able to see and speak to your Nan. I bet she enjoyed sharing family stories with you, while she was able. It must have given her a real buzz. Enjoy the birthday celebrations this afthernoon. Looking forward to seeing the new photo with the comment "This is my Nan, she is 102" Tess

	Thank you all for your lovely messages. My nan has had a lovely day and even managed to blow her candles out bless her. Even her 7 month old gt gt granddaughter had a great time. Plenty of photos taken so I've updated my avatar. Chris

	Wow what a wonderful picture to have of your Nan with a great great grandaughter. How lovely is that for the little girl to be shown when she is older. Sounds like it has been a special day for a special lady. Gwyn
