Ninety-nine years — thousands of memories, and a smile that still lights up every room 🌷
Today, we celebrate my beautiful mom, Gladys, turning 99 years young 🎂

She has lived through decades of change, witnessed history unfold, and raised her family with unwavering love and devotion 🤍
Through every season of life — joyful and difficult — she held on to her laughter, her warmth, and her gentle spirit.

She taught us the quiet lessons that matter most:
Kindness in how we treat others 🌼
Gratitude for even the smallest blessings ✨
And the ability to find joy, even on the hardest days 🤍

Her strength, grace, and the stories she carries continue to inspire everyone lucky enough to sit beside her and listen.
This isn’t just a birthday — it’s a celebration of a life beautifully lived, and a love that is still being shared every single day 💛

If you’re reading this, please take a moment to send a warm thought, a prayer, or a gentle wish her way as we honor a truly remarkable woman 🤍
