The 85^th birthday of my wife

One of the changes of the worldwide pandemic brought to everyone’s life is the cancellation of travel and family gatherings. But in their places, many zoom meetings and virtual parties are taking place. Often these substitutions brought about new experiences and emotions not present in traditional circumstances. Today 8/29/2020 is the 85^th birthday of my wife. Normally this calls for a celebratory party of family and friends. Instead in its place our two grown daughters assembled a 26 minutes video clips of friends and family members of Sophia sending greetings from all over the world in Chinese and English (some of them we have not seen in decades). What a wonderful birthday gift that must take days to make! Here is a link where you can see what a video gift everyone can make for their love ones https://app.vidhug.com/SyFyLrSQw/hug .
