Today is Nancy’s birthday,
and don’t you know that
She is The Gift.
the gift of laughter
and love
and reminders of what’s important and what’s not.
of being content with what you have and where you are
instead of looking for That One Special Thing
that will make you happy or make your life Complete.
She’s an example of how to accept help from others
without feeling needy or inadequate
or obligated.
She gifts so many with her art,
her smile,
her Being.
Becoming Nancy’s sister-in-law might just be the best gift
The Engineer ever gave me,
and let me tell you what:
he’s a fantastic gift-giver.
Happy birthday, Nancy.
Here’s to many more years of
drawing and stitching
laughing and loving
and good health.
Cheers. Clink.
She’s so adorable! Happy, happy Birthday, Dear Nancy! Hope your special day brought you everything that makes you happiest! <3
She and her friends had a birthday supper catered by The Olive Garden, she had a cupcake, balloons, and flowers. I think it was a good birthday. A real good birthday.
