Another year...another candle. I remember each day my children were born and how magical it was to have them in my arms. My mother tells a very different story. I was born in the heat of summer over due by days and in order for me to come into this world my mother packed her bags and arrived at the hospital demanding my removal. I have always been a daddy's girl.
My best friend, a baker extraordinaire bakes me what ever I want every year. Thank you Amy the spritz cookies are disappearing very fast.
My birthday gals have taken their places.
And the nicest surprises arrived in the mail.
Charming tissue flowers.
With beautiful details.
A huge surprise.
From a favorite artist and friend. I am in awe of the beauty and thought that each little stitch holds.

Miss Heather of Vintage Grey has gifted me the most beautiful friendship and gifts.
Handmade to perfection.
Thank you Heather.
I find that my children have to stand in my doorway and demand my removal from said sewing room every now and then in the event of dinner, practices and more. Full circle?

The great thing about people who wish you happy birthday the day AFTER said birthday is that it just keeps the celebration going. I may wish you a happy birthday tomorrow, too, just so you keep celebrating.
Happy Birthday, Renee! What a beautifully wrapped gift! Heather sent along some lovely goodies for your birthday.
What a beautiful gift from Heather. Happy Birthday, Renee! I hope your day was filled with happiness.
Happy Birthday sweet Renee! Heather is such a sweetie for sending that lovely surprise! Hope you have a fabulous day! xo Holly
Happy Birthday! Your story is a lot like mine! I was born on July 21 and I was more than two weeks overdue. My mom was staying with her parents on their farm because my father was in Vietnam. It was a record-breaking hot summer. She went to her doctor and said that if he didn't do something, then she was going back home to ride the tractor. He admitted her and induced. The hospital didn't even have air conditioning. But what really worked out was that I was born just after midnight the next day which happened to be my Grandma's birthday, so we got to share our day! I hope your day is fabulous.
OoOps I'm late! Happy Birthday!
I am so sorry that I didn't get in here yesterday to wish you a Happy Birthday on time.
Happy belated Birthday! I hope you have an extra special year!!!
Oh BTW, my birthday story is that when my mom got to the hospital there was no room and I ended up almost being birn in the hallway. The nurse did not believe her when she told her the baby was coming. My mom would know, she had 6 babies in 11 years!!
Happy Happy Birthday, to the birthday girl!
What a delightful day you have had with such incredibly sweet pretties! Heather has blessed you so abundantly with the amazing work of her hands. She has added so many magic touches!
You are loved by so many...including me.
Birthday hugs, Renee!
