Happy Birthday to me...

Yes, it's my special day!! May there be many wishes for continued health and happiness and lots and lots of presents :) Though, I must say, my best present ever was born just 5 days after my birthday last year. Little Noli made her debut on May 25th, 2007.

I have so much going on and such a busy week. Not only am I working, but I also have to plan a first b-day party for Noli. I wasn't sure if I would do anything for her special day and then this weekend I woke up and made the decision to share her special day with family and close friends.

As for my day, it's just another ordinary day, really. Nothing special planned at the moment. My family and I will go out to dinner at one of my favorite dining establishments (probably this weekend or next) and celebrate. Other than that, I will do some reflecting on this past year and think about the fabulous future that I am sharing with my daughter and family and friends.

I'll close this entry by posting a few quotes shared by a friend on one of my previous birthdays-

'Age is something that doesn't matter unless you are a cheese'. (author unknown)

'The secret to staying young is to live honestly, eat slow, and lie about your age'. (Lucille Ball)

Love to all!

Happy birthday, Jackie! Go get yourself a cup cake on the way home from work. Or a pint of your favorite ice cream. Do something sweet just for you. You deserve it.

Hugs-
Suzanne
