April 16th
And she is twenty. Twenty will last the year, and twenty-one will follow. But for now, it's twenty. It's plenty.
Happy Birthday, Ali. I love you.
(Can I just say? I love these last two -- the last two times I've seen you -- do-it-yourself haircuts, too.)
At quick glance, it's easy to see that Alison shares her birthday with many musicians and performers, quite a few athletes and a few writers, not so many scientists, mathmeticians or rulers/politicians. She also shares it with my Aunt Arlene. ; )
It is still unclear as to what Ali's career(s) will be -- but whatever she does, she's got the wings (well, presently, maybe, only one) and she's sure to soar.
Fly, little darlin', go high and go far.
But not too far.
Well, as far as you need to, I guess.
I'll always have you close.
Vicki, she's beautiful!! Happy Birthday, Ali!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY ALI! You did good Mom. REAL good.

What a cute red-headed daughter!! Is she the artist daughter that I met? She will find her way. My 30-year old is still finding her way,b ut she is a lovely, loyal young woman who thinks deeply and enjoys the good thing of life that I had hoped she would. And, your 20 year old seems the same.
