me on my 3rd Birthday
Happy Birthday ~ To ME!!!!
If you haven't guessed my Birthday is a very big deal to me!!
You see I think one's Birthday is a very big deal because it marks the day that you were BORN!
Born into this world, put on this earth and if you're celebrating another Birthday then it means you're still HERE.
Growing up I always had the feeling that I wasn't going to last, that my days were numbered ..so being here, now, after all this time and having all that I have.. well....I'm grateful and I think that's cause for celebration!
Some might celebrate every day because of this - that they've woke up and are lucky enough to be here and yes, I sometimes do that too but for me the big day is once a year!
Today ~ June 30th.
I enjoyed my birthday so much that I used to mark the whole month of June as my Birthday month.
Yes, I can be selfish.
And then I cut it down to my Birthday week.
And now I think I might just cut it to my day.
Like everyone else.
Not that I want to BE like everyone else, it's just that I have more important things, or people I must say to think about, or that occupy me now
Yes, I still think my day is my day...no one can take that away from me, ever.
So raise your glass, send a hug, a kiss, a wink, a good thought, or just a smile because I'm here to celebrate yes, another day, another year of being here and for that I am very very grateful.
Happy Birthday to me!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY, HAPPY BIRTHDAY, HAPPY, HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU!!!!
WE LOVE YOU SNEFFER ROO:)
LOVE ERIN, JARED, JARIN AND JADEN

Happy BirthDAY, Stef!
I loved your message because you acknowledged your specialness and how much you've grown since you were three and thirteen and nineteen and twenty-anything. And that you are HERE. Still. Thank heavens. I'm glad you're here. (Shhhh, don't tell anybody, but I think you're blossoming into a real-live, awesome, JUICY, wonderful fabulous ADULT! !!!!Wooo hoo!!! Yep, I used the A-word to describe Stef and it feels great!)
Happiest, sparkliest birthday wishes to you.
xoxo,
Becky
