I hope that you have had a happy 56th birthday.
I just got up but I know it is evening there in England.
I hope your day has been filled with sweet things and best wishes.

I Think that most of you who read my blog know and love Marie, but if you don't, hop on over to England and read her blog A year from Oak Cottage. She publishes a delightful post every day. I am sure that you will be glad that you took the time to visit her. While you are there please wish her a happy birthday. She will appreciate it.
Let me tell you a little about what Marie stands for.
I wrote this poem for Marie 2 years ago.
As a tradition I post it on her birthday each year.
