Happy Birthday! I hope you've got something extra special planned today.

Thanks!! We have a party planned for Saturday, cake ordered, and this morning woke to decorations hung by youngest D. Coffee was made and I had really good pastries. Great beginning to 49! Happy Birthday to ME!

Enjoy your day! Sounds like it started off with beautiful surprises from your daughter.

The girls got me the most beautiful painting of a black bear. Just his face, looking a bit grumpy and in need of hug. So blessed.

Best. Birthday. Ever.

Received a bouquet of flowers and a very touching card from ol' what's his name-and that's not even what made it the best!

I'm not surprised by his gestures. He is trying to get back into your good graces and hopes that this is a first step. He doesn't recognize that the hard work of getting clean, cleaning up his act and proving himself trustworthy to you for more than a week or so is the way to go.

Any way, I do hope you enjoyed the flowers and the card...but stay strong and do not waiver on what you've told him.

Holding strong. Being honest, but holding strong. Not wavering.

Received an "I love you and I have missed you" today.

HOLDING STRONG.

Have a date with someone new on Sunday afternoon. A former professional soccer player. Ellie, Wink Wink, NUDGE NUDGE...

A hot soccer player! Sounds like just what you deserve for your birthday (unless, of course, he's one of those that have lowered their IQ by heading the ball too much - let's hope not!)
