HAPPY BIRTHDAY GIA

Dear Gia,

I did NOT forget.  I hope you have a wonderful dinner with your husband.  Trudie had duck for her birthday, what exotic meal are you looking forward to?  Gia, you have been a wonderful friend and a staunch ally.  I am truly very grateful that we got to "meet".  OK so we haven't "met" yet, but I am looking forward to meeting you at Deandra's wedding.  We will dance and laugh and celebrate life with Deandra and Luke.  Only another year to go!!!!!
Well, today you should dance and laugh and celebrate another glorious year of being able to stop and smell the roses.  Do something silly after dinner like laying in the backyard and star gazing, or go skinny dipping somewhere.  Do something out of the ordinary and really celebrate your life.
Love ya
Jan

Jan - Thank you for the wondeful post..you are a wonderful friend to me as well and brought a tear to my eyes today..I was feeling a bit down today as I am 42..UGH!!! Main reason being my Mother was diagnosed with colon cancer at my now age and suffered for 2 years after that and than passed away at 44...it is so heartbreaking...CANCER ***** as you all know...so this is a little difficult for me today...BUT on a lighter note my 2 daughters were very cute this morning and singing and happy so I must be grateful for my blessings....Hubby and I are going out for Italian food as I have been dieting since March and am craving real food so I decided to treat myself..I am down 40 lbs. so I am happy still have 25 or so to go but tonight special right???? LOl! Anyway, Jan I love you and you have been so good to me and I appreciate all you do and pray for you so much...Donna, you are another amazing woman who means so much to me as well..all I ask is for all of you to keep fighting the fight and that would be the best gift ever!!! Thank you girls...Love ya! Gia

Happy Birthday  Gia, I will tell you what I always told my kids,  you can go in the pool, but don't get wet, that always floored them.  Hope you had a great day.  42, you are still a kid to me  ha ha ha  marty

Here I come trailing on.... I missed the big day, so this will be the big day afterwards... and the Big day (Two or Three? Days) afterwards for Trudie... Geeezzz Louise.... this is not like me to miss Birthdays.

I got hungry reading about your plans to have Italian food tonight. And, MAN oh MAN... you have been working hard... no easy feat losing weight. I am sure you are feeling fantastic, Gia!  How sweet that your girls were singing for you on the morning of your birthday...

I owe you about ten or twenty notes or messages, don't I?  Don't worry, I don't think any of us will ever lose the friendships we've made here.

Happy Birthday,

Love, Mary
