this hand turns 104 today

at church today, we had cake in celebration of the 104th birthday of one of the members. 104! incredible, isn't it? she attends the sunday service all the time, mingles with all the members during coffee time, always smiling. her only enemy is her arthritis. apparently she used to play the piano but had stopped a few years ago. i'm not sure if she's got the title of canada's oldest person, but the fact that she passed the 100 mark is just plain remarkable.

the prompt for the canon 30-day challenge is "hand".
Oh golly whizz, what a marvel she is. Can you start to imagine what's happened in the world in her lifetime? Amazing.

How exciting to be able to connect with someone that has so many things to remember and tell about. The portrait is awesome with that great side light. FAV

So interesting to focus on the hand like this, and to wonder all that the hand has helped do over the years.

104 and still active. That is pretty good going. You should take more than this wonderful hand portrait of her. It would be lovely to see her face too one day.
