Let the Birthday Begin!

I love my birthday!  I love it so much that I don't just celebrate the DAY I was born, I celebrate the entire month.  This year, with my medical challenges, I am even happier to celebrate my birthday. 


My wonderful friend in the USA, who knows me well, stitched this amazing gift and sent it to me for my birthday.  I am so happy with it.  My favorite animal, my favorite color, what could be better?  I know how long it takes to make a gift like this, so I am overwhelmed with gratitude.  





Thank you Rhoda! 


PS  You may remember this gift I received for my birthday in 2013, also made by the same friend. She knows me well!  I was the only Giant Panda in Hokkaido and always got a lot of attention when I wore my panda hat and scarf.  (Thanks again!)

That is some gift, Pamela. You are a very lucky girl to have such a good and generous friend. I am sure you will enjoy MANY more 'birthmonths' to come. You will have to open your own panda zoo!
Happy Birthday!

Happy Birthday...all month long. It's so refreshing to have a friend that embraces....revels.. in her birthday! I always wonder why some people pooh pooh their birthday. My reply is ALWAYS...its better than the alternative.

Rhonda has given you very thoughtful and love filled gifts. Rhonda, you are a gem and your friendship to Pamela is a a very good gift too.
xx, Carol
