Love all the lovely cards and gifts you received. Really love that coffee cup. I relate to the rain and no sunshine. Seems we maybe having the same weather pattern. Always love seeing the pictures of Ruby and Eli! Even when I have seen them already! What a joy having them over for a sleep over. This grandma needs another visit for her sleep over. :) I think I must agree with #3. Blessing for a rich year ahead and love and prayers sent your way.<br />Blessings my friend<br />BethBethe77https://www.blogger.com/profile/07908965956063875893noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-884235015796031442.post-48855235360482962592013-04-15T15:59:20.971+01:002013-04-15T15:59:20.971+01:00I think I am remiss in not having said a proper Ha...I think I am remiss in not having said a proper Happy Birthday to you, one of my dearest Tadpoles. I'm sorry - I am sucking at the blogosphere here lately, hee. It looks as tho' you had a glorious one, with an added bonus of grandkids! YAY!<br /> <br />And Squirrel did the Model UN in high school too. She LOVED it too. In fact it steered her towards her minor in college. She is going to be a biologist with her mind set on developing sustainable crops for third world countries [or something like that - SHE'S the scientist, alas, not her Momma] And I remember those days of prep for the conferences, like the one beautiful Eleanor is attending, well.<br /> <br />Time for a nap! I will be dreaming and hoping warmer temps for you. You must be able to enjoy that garden now, shouldn't you! Hugs and much love my friend. 6? looks FABULOUS on you. xo SkipSkippyMomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09479661523059481730noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-884235015796031442.post-25500504647515750482013-04-15T15:42:49.350+01:002013-04-15T15:42:49.350+01:00Happy belated birthday, dear Diane.

I remember the year when you were hinting that your birthday had something to do with a Beatles song "When I'm --." Time flies when you're having fun and even when you're not having fun, don't you think? Another Beatles song, "Good Day Sunshine" seems to be the prevailing theme of Southhamsdarling. You spread a great deal of sunshine into the lives of others. It's about time the sun shines down on you over there in deepest, darkest Devonshire.<br /><br />The picture of all the flowers and cards you received and your lovely garden in the background is magnificent. Never doubt for a moment that people around the world love you and care about you.<br /><br />It funny, now that I've heard Ruby speak in that video your posted, I can imagine her carrying on conversations in her charming "English accent." I have created a voice for Eli, too, and imagine him singing:<br /><br />"I'm Hen-er-ee the 8th I am <br />Hen-er-ee the 8th I am, I am!"<br /><br />I am very excited about the track Eleanor is on. It is an extremely beneficial process for her to learn about other countries, come to understand their positions on global issues and enter into mock debates with other young people doing the same type of research. Eleanor is headed for a life of leadership and public service and I am thrilled for her and for her family.<br /><br />I like the Bette Davis quote about old age. Every day I find myself quietly smiling as I gear up for the fight against aging. It is a challenge I am eager to accept because the alternative is to give up and fade away.<br /><br />With that in mind, Dear Thisisme, I ask that you mark your calendar for this Thursday, April 18. It will be a very special day on my blog. Our dear friend Margaret Schneider, Kathleen's mother, is turning 101 years of age and I hope you will remember to come by and wish that remarkable lady a happy birthday. Thank you, dear friend Thisisme!Shady Del Knighthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03839935472941264414noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-884235015796031442.post-71544190740690204092013-04-14T14:44:52.467+01:002013-04-14T14:44:52.467+01:00What a neat, well thought out post.

You must have had a fun day, opening all the presents and reading cards and arranging flowers. You family is adorable and your daughter with her friends. How nice for her to be getting all that life experience. Have a great weekend of rest after all that celebrating.<br />ManziManzanitahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06467261212623663365noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-884235015796031442.post-877988568094934622013-04-14T13:23:28.425+01:002013-04-14T13:23:28.425+01:00What a lovely celebration for a lovely woman!
