ReplyDeleteThese were lovely birthday wishes. They show a contented and joyful Christian wife and mother. I hope I am around to read your list on your 6oth birthay--60 wishes? I am assuming, of course, that you are still keeping your blog going in thirty years and that I am still using my computer. Who knows what technology we'll be using then! Lots to look forward to. In the meantime, may the Lord bless your entire thirtieth year of your life. Love, Aunt T.
ReplyDeleteAnne, you are the queen of the birthday freebies! So glad you had such a nice birthday. You are a dear friend and I'm thankful for you! (And I'm not just saying that 'cause I forgot your birthday... :) )
