We halt the parade of chickens to mark an amazing milestone…it’s not every day that one’s dad turns 101 years old! Yes, my adorable, cheerful, still witty daddy, Milton Sutton–who taught me important early lessons about writing–enjoyed his 101st birthday last weekend. Here are 2 photos from what he called “the best birthday party he ever had.”

My dad and well-wishers: daughters, sons-in-laws, grandchildren, grandchildren-in-laws and girlfriend, great-grandsons, and aides (who came in on their days off!)

My Daddy and I share a laugh at his 101st birthday party

Thank you so much! The happy party was extra special because your grandma was there!
