“Thankful for Alice” Thursday

November 15, 2007 by Minnesota Mom Filed Under: Minnesota Me, Special Events 15 Comments

Instead of listing ten reasons for my gratitude today, I am giving you only one.

Her name is Alice.

And today she joins the club.

I love her so much that I just have to say: 40 Hail Marys for you today, Missy!

Happy Birthday, Alice!!!

With much love and many regrets (today) that I am,

PS. I don’t know that Alice, being Alice, will even mention the fact that today is her very special day. Therefore I invite you to sign this “card” if you like by leaving a comment. Perhaps you could add to the spiritual bouquet that I have started?

Hi there!

I’m Margaret in Minnesota, and this is my mom's-eye perspective of a kid-heavy life. I love the Lord; I take lots of photos; and I always try to tell it like it is, from sex to depression and everything in between! I hope you enjoy your time here. ♥
