You must have been a lively thing to have almost rolled off the changing table. You still are now, of course. Happy Birthday, I've only got you beat by two months. We are practically twins in more ways than one. I should laugh more often too. I'm way too serious. It's a manufacturer's defect. Have a great day! XOX
We should toast to your last statement! Happy Birthday and we'll check in and see how the next 57 years go! I like how you've thought of things you'd like to change and those you wouldn't like to change. It's hard for me to think so globally!
Oh Happy Birthday to you! I wish I were close enough to sing to you - even though you wouldn't want to hear it with this voice. :) May God grant you laughter and joy and love. blessings, marlene
Hey Birthday girl, I hope you have the bestest birthday ever. And I love your more list...and you are blessed with the have list as well. Birthday squoozes, Oma LInda
happy birthday. plenty of time to try out the things you would change except for maybe the hoard money part. but hey, even if you had started doing that earlier, you'd have probably lost it all by now anyway.
Happy birthday! What a great list...and what a lovely way to start your life, almost rolling off the table. You were ready to go, weren't you? Let me go! I'm ready!!!
[Image]Today I celebrate surviving fifty-seven years of life with it's varied experiences. The first adventure was almost rolling off the baby table in the delivery room, the nurse caught me. I guess I started with a physical advantage and soon added skills, increasing my mental advantages...but wisdom is an earned talent and one I am still working on.
The things I would change:
Laugh more.Have more ahaa moments than oh-no moments.Follow my dreams.Hoard more money and less stuff.Be more spontaneous.Be supportive without interfering.Be a little more selfish.Trust in myself.
The things I would not change:
Family,laughter,learning,loving,living,and trust in a Higher Being.
May the next fifty-seven years be full of love, hope and happiness

I totally agree with your list with an emphasis on laughing more at things I took too seriously.

Happy Birthday! I read a quote today that said "Be grateful about growing old because not everyone has that option" or something like that.
Amen.
