Hope you have a fabulous day! Are you going out for your birthday dinner or is your hubbie making you something special? Either way, I know it will be great! Happy Birthday!

WHAT????? I'm so sorry I missed this, Daphne! I wish I could gather your band together for you, but I don't know how...
Have a wonderful day and you better be spoiled this entire day. Hope the weather is good enough to have a
glass(es) of wine o the deck.

Never fear, the party is here!
Thanks, you guys! It's a cool rainy day here, so we're not doing much. As a matter of fact, William is attending a meeting this evening, but he should be back home by 7.
I may have mentioned this before. He helped start a group called Circles of Hope, where leaders in the community mentor families in poverty better their lives.
Even though William is no longer actively participating, the single mom of two young boys that he mentored for a couple of years is "graduating" from the program tonight and asked him to come. She has gotten her LPN license, has a good job, and will be going back to school at night again to become an RN. So yes, he will be going to celebrate with her.

Happy Birthday Daphne! Have a great day
How great that this young lady has succeeded in making a better life with William's help. Would that there were more people in the world who would give of themselves like that.
You only live once . . . but if you do it right once should be enough!
