Today Is My Birthday!

That title is sung in that old song kind of way! Da na na na na na!
I think when it's your birthday, you have to tell other people, on that day, it somehow makes their day, watch their eyes light up and a big smile come on their face as they say "Happy Birthday!" I love to tell the cashier wherever I go that day and watch her face, whoever she might be. Funny how people just know that life is special, even if they don't know the person.
I really don't have any great pictures of myself, so I pictured one of my favorite summer flowers, Cosmos, which always seem to bloom right around my birthday! These are from our garden.
How old am I? 39 (for the first time)! 9-9-69, pretty cool day, huh? the 6 is really just an upside down 9!
Blessings on your day, and St Peter Claver, pray for us.

  3. HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!

    When I was in college (after my conversion) I used to bring treats. I agree with you; people do recognize that life is precious. It's instinctive.

    PS. My birthday is coming up, too, but I will not be turning 39. ;)

  11. "They say its your birthday,
    da na na na na!
    Happy Birthday to you!"


    I hope you had a good break in your day with some peace and quiet to think about all those 39 years past. Yep, 39 for the first time. I'll be 29 for the first time 11-13. I am still a birthday person, and feel everyone should have the most awesomest day on their birthday, doing whatever they wish. I hope that never wears off of me.

    I hope you got to do just what you wanted today. If not, call me and I'll help you make it happen soon!

    GOD BLESS THE BIRTHDAY GIRL!
