But, I'm also thankful to be back, 'virtually' sitting in your dining room and singing happy birthday to your beautiful Katie! Another special<br />family gathering. I've definitely missed you. :)<br /><br />Blessings, Debbieno spring chickenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15772761727295689298noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6596988245744679027.post-10269401409036709702011-11-07T20:35:02.373-05:002011-11-07T20:35:02.373-05:00of course I wish Kati a Happy Birthday and of cour...of course I wish Kati a Happy Birthday and of course she CAN NOT be an adult because that would force me to once again recognize that ALL of my children are now adults. Be it not so....but then again I like this phase every bit as much as I liked the toddler and school age and teen years.<br /><br />But of course what I identified most with was Ron's receiving and treasuring those things of his father. no words describe the emotion I feel picturing those moments and reflecting on those yet to come.Joaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01410962694354845751noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6596988245744679027.post-59694809775504797672011-11-07T18:58:56.121-05:002011-11-07T18:58:56.121-05:00A very happy Birthday wish to Kati!!!

I can remember the first celebration without my Dad, it was a sad time, for a long while we left his chair empty at the table. I can only imagine the joy your dh received when he was given such treasures.<br />I throughly enjoyed this read, you have a way of bringing a person right into your home and making them feel "at home". Thanks for making me feel "welcomed"<br />Hugs,<br />SueSuehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14843762646877115013noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6596988245744679027.post-12126932613146972862011-11-07T15:56:07.032-05:002011-11-07T15:56:07.032-05:00Sounds like a wonderful day, a poignant day, a day...Sounds like a wonderful day, a poignant day, a day to savor.

And I adore that new tradition, of going around the room and telling something each one likes about the birthday person. Your pictures are always so sweet. And I love thinking about Ron savoring the treasures his Mom gave him today. I have just returned from Ann's and feel afresh the truth of your words about life being a vapor. May we truly apply our hearts unto wisdom and love each other with all our strength.Franceshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10455519720849154423noreply@blogger.com
