Thank you Janet!

I got the birthday penny you sent.

See, for all the years I knew Janet, she would always send me a birthday card with a shiny new penny in it. It would always be a penny from the current year.

I was kind of sad this morning when I thought about not getting a card from her again. (Last year her card said "I hope you really like your hairstyle - because it's a known fact that women never change their hairstyle after they turn 40")

But on the stairs at the train station this morning, there it was. A shiny 2007 penny, right in the middle of the step.

Thanks hon!

Happy Birthday!

I'm sure she just wanted to remind you she's still there. :)

So, have you changed your hairstyle? Happy birthday!

not yet - though I will at least one more time. It's just that the last time I cut it short I looked in my mirror and my mom looked back at me! I'm not quite ready for THAT yet.

Buon cumpleanno mi amica! Your little story made me tear up a little bit. It's amazing the things that remind us of those we love.

Yeah - I giggled and sniffled at the same time.

You know she'd never let you down like that.

The fact that she's gone doesn't mean that she takes her responsibilities any less seriously!

Happy birthday, and many happy returns!
