Many Happy Returns

Fa-So-La-La and the Shieldmaiden

Today is Queenie's birthday. . . she is 32.

Actually, age is rather pointless in dear Mamadah's case. Because she is one of those rare and blessed individuals to whom age is nothing but a number, and who measures people by other standards instead. She is our best friend, our teacher, our mentor, our counsellor, and partner in crime and drama.

Thank you, thank you, for everything you do for us, and we love you dearly. Smoochums!

Thank you, sweet girls. You cannot imagine how much I love you.

And I'm guessing the Beehive Faithful are calculating that I couldn't possibly be chronologically 32, so I suppose an explanation is in order...

When Fa-So-La-La was a tow-headed little girl, she informed me that she liked me exactly-perfectly-precisely 32, and that she would prefer it very much if I would agree to stay that age forever. DEAL, I said.

And I still feel exactly 32, so I guess it worked. Now if I could just convince my crow's feet...

Happy Birthday, dear Aunt Lynn!

Oh, me. We've had fun times. Chocolate, mattresses, wedding tables, grocery stores, wax lips, pajamas, Mexican food...Good times.

You've been there for me through thick and thicker. You've made me t-shirts, and talked with and encouraged me on numerous subjects. And you laugh with and at me...everyone needs a friend like that.

I love you so much!

So, when I'm, like, 32...we can be, like, 32 together!!!
