Birthday Girls




"We turn not older with years, but newer every day."
~Emily Dickinson

This is a magical week of birthdays.  First there was my niece Maddy's, now there is my friend Jackie's, and then there will be my sister Susan's.  Each one of them inspires me, makes me laugh, and makes me think, and so I wish them all many adventures and surprises of the best kind in the coming year.

May each week lead you to a new discovery and each day to a new joy.

xo Gigi

  3. February is quite possibly one of my favorite months of the year! It seems all great things have entered my life during this short month - met Sean, received Ashton, and had Gaia! Now I am celebrating more wonderful people, like our Jackie, during this fabulously filled month of love!

  8. Oh Gigi,
    Thank you so much. You are such a lovely friend for wishing me a lovely birthday on my blog. You have been such a special blogging friend and I often think of you as I am always looking at my sea glass and shells, reading you book of poems and using my other giveaway gifts.
    I'm afaid that my computer skills are not good enough to add a picture to my thank you post but I am going to add some text to thank you.
    Hope that you are feeling a little better, Gigi. You are in my thoughts. XXXX

  20. Oh Jackie's birthday has turned out to be a real blog block party, I just love it. It's so funny that you kinda get everyone's personality even though we physically are not near each other.

    Happy birthday to your sister Susan, my sister is a Susan also.
    xoxo
