A Birthday Celebration....80 years in the making!!

It is not everyday someone has a Birthday to celebrate their 80th year. Today is my Aunt LaVoice's 80th Birthday.

I tried to be sneaky and post last week, and then delete the post requesting your assistance in the Birthday celebration. I am so thankful at the response I received and your cards and Birthday wishes started arriving last week! As of Saturday, 35 cards had arrived....I know by the end of today, I am going to safely anticipate at least 80 well wishes!! Thanks guys, you are true blogging friends. I knew I could count on all of you!

Please stop by Thoughts From Meme's Corner and wish LaVoice a very Happy 80th Birthday today....I can not wait for her to blog about her gifts and cards she received for this special birthday...many were inspired with the "new blogger" in mind!

  8. Suzanne,

    Thank you so much for introducing Mother to the world of blogging and for being such a wonderful niece to her. You've exposed her to a new world of friends and helped her do something that will continue to keep her young.

    Love you,

    Terry

Sometimes someone says something really small, and it's like it fits into this empty space in your heart!

Thank you for stopping by and leaving your thoughts here, they really mean a lot to me!
