Happy, Happy Birthday Rachel Dear!

I want to wish my very special friend a very Happy Birthday! My theory is that many fantastic people come and go in life, but every once in a while, if we are really lucky, each of us has the opportunity to come accross a really great friend. They are rare and hard to find. They are precious. Rachel Smith is one of these special people in my life. Her life experience and knowledge bring such a spirit of peace to all who know her. What an example of caring and service. She is truly a diamond in the rough. Happy Birthday my friend!

Monica, you make me tear. Thank you.
Wait a minute - are you saying I'm still "rough"?!

Monica said...

No silly! You are a DIAMOND in the rough. "The rough" is the world, you are the "diamond". It's an analogy...don't you almost have a Masters or Doctorate or something???

Thank you Monica for recognizing how wonderful my Queen is! She is a diamond and I'm blessed to see her sparkle everyday.
