Well, not until 9:36 PM tonight, which is followed at 12:08 AM on the 22nd by the celebration of the nativity of Ms. Conroy.
We were born in the same city. In the same hospital.
Amazing but absolutely true.
So, lift a cuppa and sing with us. Our lives are deeply enriched for having known and loved you.
"Finally, I suspect that it is by entering that deep place inside us where our secrets are kept that we come perhaps closer than we do anywhere else to the One who, whether we realize it or not, is of all our secrets the most telling and the most precious we have to tell." Frederick Buechner
Come in! Come in!
"If you are a dreamer, come in. If you are a dreamer, a wisher, a liar, a Hope-er, a Pray-er, a Magic Bean buyer; if you're a pretender, come sit by my fire. For we have some flax-golden tales to spin. Come in! Come in!" -- Shel Silverstein

My Roberto, may he rest in peace, and I were delivered by the same midwife in our village one day apart back in '64! He on 18 JAN and me on 19 JAN.
So then, Barbara is much younger, as she has told me.
Well Happy Birthday!!!!
A happy birthday to both of you! I pray your next year will full of continued love, joy and growth.

Many happy returns to you both! May you get back, tenfold, all the good you have sown in the world.
Oh, Elizabeth, you were born the same day as my beloved mentor Krister Stendahl who died last week and would have been 87 today. May Godde grant you long years, and long years too to Ms. Conroy. Rejoice and celebrate! Glory to the One who creates us and sustains us.

O God, our times are in your hand: Look with favor, we
pray, on your servants Elizabeth and Ms. Conroy as they begin another year. Grant
that they may grow in wisdom and grace, and strengthen their trust in your goodness all the days of their lives; through Jesus
Christ our Lord. Amen.

Thank you all for your kindness. Stay tuned to see the picture of Ms. Conroy's present which she will get at dinner this evening. Talk about cool!
Late. I'm late saying Happy Birthday to both of you. REALLY late. Like a whole DAY late. And I hate being late. For anything.
So Happy Birthday, dear one.
A day late.
