Darling, Delightful,
Intelligent too.
All that and more describes Diana, it’s true. She’s always
Near when you need a friend,
At the ready to cheer and even make you grin.
Forever she’ll be your friend tried and true.
Loving you and helping you, whatever you need her to do.
On today a very few years ago our Diana was born,
We won’t say the year, only that is was a beautiful morn.
Everyone please tell her Happy Birthday today, and help us
Raise a cheer to brighten her way. Diana you’re our precious
Sweet friend it’s true and we’ll forever and ever be loving you!!

ReplyDeleteSUSAN, my some of my bffs are having a luncheon for me today! My kids and gkids can't come over b/c hubby has a high fever and is coughing alot :( Glad some special friends presented me with a lovely cake yesterday or I wouldn't have gotten one this year! :) Thank you so much for the b'day blessings!
DeleteDIANA I hope you have the best birthday ever! I love you and I appreciate all you do on the blog. Hope you like the poem I wrote for you! :) BIG HUGS!!
ReplyDeleteI LOVE it, but how can I live up to all of that? hehe Thanks so much, TERESA! I am totally taken aback by this! You guys surprised me for sure! Big hugs back, gf!
DeleteThis is such a sweet way to wish someone Happy Birthday! I would like to add my Happy Birthday as well, Diana! Question: Do you enjoy having your birthday so close to Christmas? I always thought that if my birthday was this close to Christmas that I would get lost in the shuffle of the holiday. I am sure that your thoughts about this differ now from when you were a child.
ReplyDeleteAnyhoo......have a blessed day. Here is a little birthday clown for you, dear lady: *</:o)
Actually, I do, DEBBIE! I have never got lost in the shuffle and some dear friends even presented me with a cake the day BEFORE my b'day! Thank you for the b'day greetings and the clown! ;)
DeleteSweet and lovely DIANA... ALL my LOVE and best wishes for the HAPPIEST and most memorable birthday ever!!! I am soooo blessed that you've come into my life, my life really is all the more richer for knowing you! And you really are as TERESA'S clever poem describes you - helpful, intelligent, loving, and completely delightful! GOD BLESS YOU!!
ReplyDeleteNOELA, thank you so much, honey! You left out crazy! lol Actually I am blushing ferociously. You are just too sweet. And all of the above applies to you as well. Not the crazy remark, however, but you are very funny!
