Taking note

I am grateful for family and friends that make me feel so special on my birthday!
I've had an excellent weekend at Mt. Hood...mostly being lazy. I didn't even take one picture, sorry!
I'd like to capture this memory in virtual land. I am grateful for Toby and his self-less-ness. Grateful for Keisha and Chris...wishing them the best with their new home and baby on the way! Grateful for Jen and Aaron...we rock the casbah! Grateful for my Dad and proud of his accomplishments. Grateful for Mommy and wish she had been given a stronger body. Grateful for grandparents that always show they care. Grateful for finding lost friends and hearing about their successes. Grateful for Harold and Judy, my Oregon parents. Grateful for all the well wishes sent in all ways technological and sentimental. Grateful for Jessica's strength in my life and hope she carries it through in her own. Grateful for the love Colette always provides. Grateful that Sister and Alex are welcoming another bright light and the sweet words from Ella this morning. Grateful for Kirsta and Erle's love and the smiles their little ones bring to me.

Thank you.
