Happy Birthday Anna!

Happy Birthday, Anna! She was born in 1900. William McKinley was president. Influenza, pneumonia, and TB were the leading causes of death. It was common for women to have 10-12 children and half would die before their first birthday. Amazing all of the changes she has witnessed.

Happy Birthday Anna! Glad you were able to celebrate your day with family and friends, because you should! With having reached any age over 100 you should celebrate every single year Anna. Then to think you still live at home. You are an amazing woman. Nice to read about your story.
