Yesterday I turned—shhh!—51. Lots of birthday wishes, birthday blessings and birthday angels came my way.
From my daughters, who surprised me with early-morning gifts, including a leopard-print summer scarf and a leopard-print house key (and it works!).
From all five of my siblings, who sent hilarious texts (I’m the oldest and they love to remind me).
From colleagues, who poked their heads into my office, stopped me in the hallway or sent emails.
From my boss, who excused my late arrival to work due to the morning’s festivities.
From friends—some I haven’t seen in years, some I’ve never even actually met—on Facebook.
And, best of all, from more than a few of you, who somehow learned about this birthday of mine, and remembered, just because you love Angels on Earth. You are my birthday angels!
