Marjorie Barretto pens a heartwarming message to pay tribute to her mom Inday Barretto, who is celebrating her 83rd birthday yesterday, January 12.

In her Instagram post, Marjorie described her mom as a “fighter” and “survivor.”

She wrote, “Happy Birthday Mom! At 83 years old, she's still so naturally beautiful. She is strong, fierce, a fighter and a survivor.

“She and I are different in so many ways, but my passion for decorating my home, and my being big on Christmas decoration and celebrations, my hosting party skills and my love for cooking and recipes I got from her.”

Marjorie added that their life is different now since their dad passed away in October 2019, so she is praying that God grants her more years to spend time with them.

“I pray God grants you more years, and keeps you well. Its' different now without Dad, but I know there is a reason why God chose for you to still be with us. Let's celebrate that everyday.”
