My Yiayia (my maternal grandmother) “turns” 120 today. She passed away in 1992.
Something not a lot of people know about her- she had a job hand sewing sequins onto formalwear. She did this all throughout the 1950’s! I heard stories about this alongside tall tales of how women weren’t allowed to work back then.
Happy birthday in heaven, Yiayia!
I bet she worked hard all her life and loved you very much!
