Turning 46 yesterday was so wonderful, I think I’ll do it again next year. 
First of all, Princess of the Universe made me a cake that had so much icing the layers were sliding apart.
Yes, all that white stuff floating around the bottom layer is icing. Homemade icing. Yum.
Then she drew me a beautiful picture of us and wrote me the sweetest little note. Princess of the Universe = Michaela = Mike (because that’s what you do when you have three big brothers, so I have Daniel, Joe, John and Mike).
I think my birthday dress, above, is lovely, don’t you? Would you look at my waist!!! I can eat all the cake I want.
I received a package from my sister with many cute things to make me happy. Best of all was the book, A Brighter Garden
Princess of the Universe gave me this little elephant. We named her Renee Gray. I love the name Renee for a couple of very, very special people in my life. Renee Gray sits on my work desk to help me remember words. Elephants are good for that, you know.
Candles placed in the shape of 4 6 . I made a wish and blew them all out. I’ll let you know if I get my wish.
It was a wonderful day. I also received cards from best friends and relatives. Thank you so much. You made my day.

Happy Birthday to you, Lynn! What a marvelous cake – I’m sure it was as delicious as it looked (cakes made from love are like that). Many birthday blessings to you and have a wonderful Sunday!
Happy Birthday Friend!!

Thank you so SO much, all of you, for my birthday wishes!
I did have a nice birthday and that cake was sweet, sweet and chocolatey rich and I ate way too much. But that’s okay.
I think I’ll start putting cake recipes in Michaela’s work boxes each day!!
Lynn
Oh I’m late to the party! HAPPY BIRTHDAY Lynn! And I must say that your cake looks DIVINE!! I bet it was delicious!
I’m behind – and late – but wanted to say Happy Birthday!!! I’m so glad you had a fun day! You are a delight and I’m thankful for you. I hope and pray that this is the beginning of a delightful year!
Love
