Happy Birthday in Heaven

Today is my mom's birthday in heaven. I will go to the church to offer prayers for her later. I wondered how she celebrates her birthday in heaven. All I know is that she is with our loved ones who passed away many years ago, especially my father. I am sure our God is with them. I do not miss her not only today but every day. Now, I lit a candle on her altar with my father. Do you still celebrate the birthdays of your loved ones in heaven?

Your Mom was very pretty. NO we do not celebrate the birthdays of our loved ones who are no more.

A simple celebration is here only. It was not like the usual birthdays. In this picture of hers, she was still not married. Some people have claimed that I look like her.

@LadyDuck Yes. When I was younger, I do look like my father. As I grow older, I am looking my mom.

@Shavkat - We visit our deceased parents at the cemetery but a festive celebration like a birthday makes no sense after people die in our culture. I thought you told us that you look like your father.

I heard that there will be a "Qing Ming Festival," or Tomb Sweeping Day on Thursday in China. Are you not practicing the same thing?

@Shavkat Yes, Ching Ming Festival is the time for us to pay respect to our ancestors. But that day is not necessarily the birthday of our ancestors.

I barely remember the birthdays of my passed on loved ones. I only remember my husband's mother, because she passed two days after her 92 birthday. Which so-happened to be in-between her birthday and mother's day.

@Shavkat It's kind of the same for me too. But then I'm not surprised.

I only remember the birthdays of my immediate family. I do remember some of my cousins, but the rest do not.

@kaylachan We are a nuclear family if there is a family reunion.

I am never a big heaven guy, but know what you mean. In that regard I always send my mom and Tom Petty and Deloris from Cranberries this. Nothing wrong with being spiritual and think things should matter.

@Shavkat Hell yeah she does, that is cool. Are you allowed to say hell yeah in heaven? I think rockers could get away with it.

@crossbones27 Up there in heaven, a slip of the tongue will be pardoned. I assumed that my mom was learning how to play the harp in heaven now. God does not have the guitar there.

I am sure my mom rocks in heaven. She is good at playing the guitar, which I did not get from her.

I lost her 2 years ago. It is fine because she is in good hands now. She is our angel now together with the others like my father.

It's nice to remember our dearly departed on their birthdays. I still greet my late Pops a happy birthday and make sure to cook or order one of his favorite dishes. When I have the time, I'd cook his favorite pork adobo with lots of fat.

Whoah! I am sure he will love that adobo. I am glad that we are on the same page with this concern.
