yellow roses are my favorite...
because...
I know no one asked...
but I am going to tell you anyway...
is because it's the only present I remember my dad giving me...
a real present...
yellow roses in a yellow lady planter...
when I was in the hospital the night before I had my tonsils out...
when I was 7...
I want to thank Gail and Jettie for kind words on my Monday post about losing a wonderful person in our town and a friend to all...
it is a hard loss for everyone...
and to Ann for birthday wishes on today's posts...
NanaDiana for sending me an ecard...
and for my bestie calling me so many times today!
it's been a good birthday...
a lazy birthday...
and I missed my dad today...
I missed being a kid and blowing out candles...
those were the days...
I missed the cake and ice cream and mom and grandma fussing about it all...
I missed my grandpa...
and the dollar bill...
365 days until I turn 50...
wow, where did all those years go?
so yellow roses for me...
for this week...
for my birthday...
