Happy Birthday, Mary!

Hermanas :)

Surrounded by kiddies?  It's such a big part of your life now; you do it so well and with so much grace. 

Do you know how much we admire you?

And as a Hermana?  Well...I know how often your phone rings.  You are a good and loyal friend. 

As a daughter?  I told Uncle Brent once (do I dare say these words?  Someone stole them from me)
"There's something about Mary.  If I could only bottle that quality..."

Always fun loving but equally wise and serene, you encompass a peacefulness I envy. 

                                                            Outspoken?  That, too.
                                 
                    HAPPY BIRTHDAY, MARY!   HAPPY BIRTHDAY, ME!
