My 50th Birtday Gift

The above was something that was supposed to appear in our local newspaper, the West Valley View with the collaborative efforts of several people. My friend Pat who was the master mind, my hubby who sent the pictures and my dear friend Bill, who was somehow involved with getting the local paper to print this, but somehow, I lucked out and it didn't appear.

I just thought I would share this with all of you and let the world know how very blessed I am to not only have turned fifty when prior to my heart surgery 48 years ago I was expected to die before I turned 6 years old, but blessed to have such wonderful friends who love me and accept me for who I am.

I would venture to say that makes me richer than most people my age!
