Birthdays!

When we were young, we looked forward to them each and every year!  It;s YOUR day.  Presents,cake, family!

Today I felt as though it was a party all day long!

As we get older, we start to want to ignore them.  After 25, there really are no real milestone we wish to achieve!

And 65 is not one of them for me!  But while I still struggle a bit with age, I do feel blessed each and every time (since 2004)

opening Facebook and seeing so many well wishes bestowed on me.  It truly makes my day.   Like when you used to get actual cards!

Seriously though, today, as usual was no different and I truly love that someone took a moment to say Happy Birthday.

And to my longest and dearest friend, Gina, who made me cry with her post.  We have been friends for 51 years!  First besties.

That is when you can look at a birthday and feel good.  So to all my Nine-niners, which I found out to be many, happy birthday yourself!!
