Happy Birthday, Laoye!

No, Laoye didn’t have eye surgery today. But it is his birthday!! Happy 73^rd, Laoye!

I was given firm instructions that there was to be no birthday party. Well, except for a family celebration. (Why would I plan a party? He’s only 73 – you need a significant year to rate a party!! Maybe in two years’ time I can catch him off guard…)

The picture is from our trip west this summer. Laoye had a wrinkled retina and the beginnings of a cataract. Both were fixed and he’s seeing fine again.
