Perfect birthday.

Not only did I get congratulations from both kids (both) and electronic messages from a few dozen best friends...I also got a surprise visit. However short, what was even sweeter - and I feel like last couple fo days were a dream. But it isn't.


Thank you, all my friends who didn't forget and took a minute to let me know about it. Thank you, Stephen and Alex. Special thank you, Larry. I am one happy gal at 39. My life is only beginning...

Well, I missed it. I don't think I ever knew it - but you share it with my friend Sonya, so now I'll remember. Happy Birthday - a day late!

I thought your b-day was the 18th?
You're still 9 years younger than me. I'm turning gray but I don't feel old, so you still have lots of years left.
