Happy Birthday! May all 45 wishes (truly good ones!) come true! If I squint, I can remember my 45th year as being a great age to be. Yes, my name is SparkleFarkle and I am a fossil. (<--- I wish there was a Twelve-step Program for that.)
Happy Birthday!!!!
I can't believe you haven't done karaoke! How come?
Oh I forgot to say that I hope all your wishes (including not so practical or feasible one) come true!
Happy Birthday
Well, I was surprised to see so many of my wishes on your 45 wishes list. I am 43 and a stay at home mom as well, guess it is a mom thing or a mid life thing but either way I hope your wishes come true, and often where applicable. *grins*
Happy super de duper belated birthday! I love all of your wishes, I could have made most of them myself!
xoxoxo
happy belated birthday! Hope it's the start of the best time of your life! :)
