I LOVE MY BIRTHDAY.
Last year was my first birthday with no parents…the ones who GAVE me a Birthday…they were gone and with them – the excitement of the day…They had always made our birthdays such special days…NOT with lavish parties in fact I honestly cannot recall one themed event…but the day was MINE…all mine and they reminded me all day how much my arrival had made THEM so HAPPY.
…and without them my Birthday..and life to some extent… felt a little like a sky….with NO sky.
….and then, because LIFE does go on…and I love my LIFE…. I turned to those to whom I gave life…and to whom I would give my all…
and a new chapter of BIRTHDAY CELEBRATING began….
TODAY has been heavenly…I am in Maine visiting my cousins and every inch of the day has been perfect and sweet and beautiful and full of LOVE and laughter and kids making fart noises and cool breezes and canoes and petting goats and the flowers….just so very many FLOWERS!
I cannot imagine a more perfect day…My Father LOVED Maine and My Mother lived for Flowers…they ARE HERE with me and I am Happy.
Happy Birthday Lesli!!! Glad you are surrounded by love ones at such a beautiful place on your special day!!
Thank you Mary…I am in heaven on Earth for sure! xo
