Little Ladies and My Birthday!


 Hi Everyone!  I thought you might like to see the envelope THE THREE are traveling in!  They should arrive at Deborah's any time now, if they haven't already!
 Last Sunday a friend from school dropped by to borrow a book and she brought her cute daughter.  Millie was at our house, too!  They are very close in age.  Look at their toes!  Aren't they two sweet little pictures of perfection?

 Peppers!  When I saw this gorgeous display of peppers at my grocery store, I HAD to capture it so you could see it, too.  I know very well that you go to grocery stores and look at vegetables on a regular basis.  I'd like you to take pictures and show them to me, so . . . . 
 Smiley face!  Sorry April and Elizabethd!  More hearty breakfast fare!
 Last weekend, we went out for frozen yogurt with Miss Samantha Rose.  

 My birthday is on Sunday!  I bought myself some lavender for the classroom.  I am continuing to LOVE sixth grade.  Oh, they are so cute, so funny, so FULL of life and love.  I shall bring them each a cupcake on Monday.

But, here is a cupcake for YOU, my sweet friend!  My birthday wish as I blow out the candle is:  Open my eyes so that I can see the secret delights that are pouring down on me and my open-eyed kindred spirits.  May we see the falling sparkles swirling around the special souls we are privileged to know!  
Happy Birthday to me!  Happy September to YOU!  Let's dance! I have a tutu you can wear and a big bow for your hair.  Stay tuned for blog connections to The Grand Tour.  I am so eager!  I can hardly stand the waiting.
(BIG HUG!)

Happy Birthday, my Dear Pom Pom. I haven't checked the mail yet, but as soon as I am done lunch I will dash out into the rain and peek in the mailbox!

Wishing you a wonder-filled weekend full of family, friends, joy, and lovely surprises!

Blessings!

Hi Birthday Girl! Have a most wondrous and magical birthday with lots of ice cream cake and loves!
Sweet babies everywhere! Love the one of you and Little.
Looking forward to seeing the W in the W fellows -- just hoping it doesn't require amazing creativity on my part -- wheels are turning rather slowly around here lately ;).
Blessings,
GG

First, Many many happy returns and blessings for your birthday, may it be filled with Gods light in the form of happiness, family, love, laughter. Wind in the Willows is really capturing my imagination, I have been thinking where the little characters would like to stay in the woods - I have my den ready for them. Samantha Rose has the most beautiful presence, she looks to me of silver, very spiritual. Hope your birthday is full of good surprises. Bettyx

How marvelous - music at the supermarket! Wow, did someone arrange that just for YOU??

My eyes are open and I see lots of sparkles around you. Wishing you a marvelous celebration of being born and of living in this beautiful world of ours.

Happy Birthday, Miss Pom!!! I'm giggling at the thought that you have a tutu in my size!! Or a bow in my hair! And you know what? I already DID take pictures from the grocery, and I'm going to post them :) Just wait! No peppers though.

You should buy a little rosemary bush too, for your classroom, and put it by the door for the students to slip their fingers through as they go in and out. Rosemary fingers are so delicious to smell.

Eagerly awaiting the Grand Tour posts and the visit!! Have a blessed birthday weekend.

Have a great day!

Oh HAppy, Happy birthday Pom Pom!!!!! I hope you have a truly delicious day! I adore the picture of you & Milly & the one of the 3 little girls dancing in a circle at the bottom of your profile bit...so sweet. I have just found a Switchfoot song quite recently called "Your love is a song"..some of the words are "I'm keeping my eyes wide open" here it is http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uH6tXZxFaWA not a quiet one so if you listen be prepared! Much love Catherine x0x0x0x

The baby girls are adorable.

Have a very happy, happy day today.
I hope you get lots of pretty cupcakes and flowers for your birthday. I hope you have a day filled with joy.
My wish is that your sky will be blue, Your sunflowers will keep their faces to the sun, and joy will sit quietly beside you and all will be well.
So thankful God gave me the joy of meeting you.
Happy Birthday,

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, Pom Pom! Today is my hubby's birthday, as well! It's a good day to be born!
Ah, babies sharing binkies! :) So cute! You have beautiful grandchildren and you are a wonderful grandma! (I can tell!)
I'm glad you are loving your class. It's wonderful to have a job you love to go to each day.
You know, I often think of God when I walk through the produce section at the store! :D He is such a wonderful artist. All of those gorgeous colors really inspire me!
Looking forward to "the visit". What exactly do we do on our blogs when we receive it? Just create a post and put in some pictures and let you know it's there?
Have a great birthday!

Happt Birthday dear PomPom! Oh my son would love to have a teacher like you! He's in 6th grade, thank God there are people who love to teach at each grade level, I could never do 6th grade, my heart is with the little ones but I'm so glad there's teachers out there who love teaching older grades. =D
