Birthday Wishes

Having a birthday so close to Christmas sometimes is...well, not noticed much. But, I have to tell you that my family and friends pulled through yesterday, to make sure I knew I was loved on my special day (thank you, everyone). My first call was a complete and personally sung "Happy Birthday" song from my 92 year old father! It was totally a cherished moment for me, causing me to laugh and cry at the same time. Mom then got on the phone to wish me a happy birthday as well and we chatted (of course!!). Here I am...?? years old, and I feel a child's spirit when my parents lavish wishes on me...Nothing better, people...Thanks, Mom & Dad! You're the best!!! (photo of Dad taken July 2008)

Thank you for your birthday wishes Chelsea and Cherie!! Don't you think Grandpa looks great, Chels? He's very thin, but pretty darn healthy at 92. Cherie, I truly do love my new shocking pink rubber boots. It will be so nice to muck around in them and be able to rinse them off clean before entering the house! Thanks for stopping by, you two!
