What I got for my Birthday

We always want to get something we can use for our birthday.

Now this, I can use. It’ll be my new credit card. I can use it to buy things, like….

A new hip, a walker, a motorized scooter, one of those chairs that pushes you up to stand…. and some teeth.

Finally, a gift I can use! 🙂

    Thank you all so much for remembering my birthday. I spent the day doing a photo shoot so that some day, I could say, “This is me on my 65th birthday. Now hand me my teeth!” LOL!! 🙂

    I asked for soft lighting for my pictures and we tried to go with just candle light but it was too bright, so I toned it down by blowing out some of those candles on my cake. 🙂 😉

    Jenny, you take good care of yourself, so I don’t see you needing that card anytime soon. Keep doing what you are doing health wise, because it seems to be paying off for you 🙂 😉
    Make the best of today, because it is your day 🙂
    Happy Birthday to you, Jenny…

    HAPPY BIRTHDAY, to the very best and oldest sister I have. You are really the best thing that ever happened to me, from about 30 years ago. Before that you were someone I really liked and tried to compete with. And before that….. locking you in the closet with monsters was so much fun.
    Now I want to wish you a great OLD day and huge numbers of them to come.
    Happy Day.

      Aw that’s kinda sweet sister dearest, but the locking in the closet thing is…hmmm…I don’t know, mean?…lol…but that is a sibling thing I guess and that’s just what sisters and brothers do…
      I have a sister like you who liked to do that to my brother when we were younger. She never tried doing that to me because she knew better…lol…
      We all eventually grow out of it and look back at things like that and can sometimes laugh about it and get passed these things as adult and I’m glad you said what you said because it was a nice thing to say 🙂

    LOL That is great…..!!!!!!!!!!! Hope you have a happy birthday and that you will not need to purchase a new hip or walker anytime soon. =)

    Still waiting on mine…I love yours though! Have a fabulous birthday!

    I wanted you to know that because of you I have been able to send lots of chemo caps to a childrens cancer ward in California. I rec’d a email from a mother thanking me…it made my day, week…I had decided to stop making them but maybe that is my purpose here on earth. Anyway thank you for your connection..and consider this a warm fuzzy for your birthday!

    Hi Kathy!

    Hello my son ant i just wanted to thank you for the “Happy Hat” because today my son Alex (2yrs) got one at the Outpatient Infusion Center at CHOC were there 4 times a week so its pretty tough seeing your son sad and scared. Today when he got his hat he was so excited to wear it even though he hasn’t los all his hair. and when i read what the tag said it really made me cry… i felt like you knew my son and i felt stronger because i wasnt alone so thank you so much and God bless you and your family… hope to hear from you thank you soooo much

    love mom(lupe) and alex

      Aw Kathy, that’s so nice of you. They must be keeping you busy. I’m glad Jenny hooked you up to something you enjoy doing for other. I agree your purpose is probably helping people coupe with hard times that surface within their lives and it has to feel great to do what you do for others 🙂

    • Jenny says:

      Kathy, I hope you’ll keep making your caps forever. It’s a beautiful way to uplift those in need. Thanks for sharing the beautiful letter and for caring for others the way you do.

      • MrsNews/Kathy says:

        My thanks are to you Jenny…I will keep on making them until I figure out what I am supposed to be doing in life!

        YOU MY DEAR MAKE 65 LOOK AMAZING!!!
