Birthday Happiness Lady

How cute is she?? My sister, Pat, sent me a box for my birthday and this lovely creature was inside. She's all about happiness and laughter. In the box I also found melt-in-your-mouth mints, lotion that smelled good enough to eat, and a little sign I can hang in my craft room (a quote from Erma Bombeck). I was feeling a bit down on my birthday, but not because I'm traumatized by my age. Tessa took me out to eat and to a movie. We hadn't done that for a long time, and I had forgotten how fun it is to hang out with her. We did more of it when Matt was in jail, but we don't want that! Yesterday I got a box from the other sister--oh such fun!
