Today would have been my mom's 110th birthday. It always makes me remember the wonderful parties plus two surprise birthdays I threw for her in her apartment in New York City. In Latvia, if the weather permitted we celebrated in the garden.
She and I went through my crazy teen years together and after we found ways to spend enjoyable times together like going to restaurants and on Saturday nights putting on some popular Latvian music and doing some improvisational dancing,
She always reminded me of a lovely butterfly that flitted here and there. So the one song I add here is "Butterfly" by Danyel Gerard in the English version, It always reminds me of her,
Happy Birthday Mom and hope you and dad are doing a birthday waltz,
Danyel Gerard - Butterfly 1987 (English) Released 1971You are bright as a night full of moonButterfly you have left much to soonYou have found you have wings...

@xFiacre it is a lovely song that has also been translated in the other language I speak Latvian. I love both versions,
