Thank you, all of you, so much! These are my first birthday greetings of the day. Sorry to get sentimental here, but that's me. I guess you know me by now.
Lotus-Thanks for the cake and the good wishes. You're very sweet yourself and a great friend!
TD-Well, okay, thanks for the song.
I think I could hear you here in Michigan. We're not THAT far apart, you know!
I'm so glad we've become such good friends, TD.
Mama san-Thank you for the very lovely card saying friend. That means a lot to me coming from you, someone I have the utmost respect for.
Fox-Thanks for making me your Auntee Serena. I really do like that.
And thanks for not inserting the generic birthday wish!
Suzi-My special, lovely friend. Thanks for working your magic with the flowers and those very pretty letters! I say it all the time, but you really are amazing! Thank you for everything, Suzi.
Heather-I don't care at all that you don't have flowers or pictures. I do care that you thought enough of me to give me your birthday wishes. That really does mean a lot to me! (If you ever do want to get the hang of posting pictures, though, PM me and I'll be glad to give you step-by-step help. It's surprisingly easy.)
Rodrigo-Thanks for your wonderful wishes. They were just lovely. We don't see you often here, but it's so nice to see you when you do show up. You're such a kind, good-hearted person, and I'm always glad to see you.
Storm-Ah, dear Storm, my special friend. Thanks for your always kind words. And, oh yeah-- I'm 21 like you're 21!
You really are one of the good ones, you know.
Amos-Oh, thanks a lot. You sounded as good as TD!
Really, Amos, thanks for everything. You're quite a guy.
Okay, now on with the party!! I'll cut the cake.
