Hi everyone, I had a Birthday recently and thought "How special" but, really, is feeling special on your birthday supposed to be that way? why don't we give the present to the mother for going through the labor and discomfort of pregnancy? or to both the mother and father for raising the child and listening and caring after they become an adult? or for doing a good job of raising the child! of course if we gave a present for giving a child the good moral upbringing and doing a good job, how many of us mothers & fathers for that matter would feel that we didn't do that good a job after all and how many of us would say what it really boils down to, "we did the best we could" not everyone is the same, they don't come with instruction books like a new appliance and there is no insurance to fall back on when something goes wrong. I guess what I'm getting at is, I was happy to be alive, for all the trouble I caused my mother it's amazing she didn't drown me when I was a teenager. And the most important thing I'm getting at, My mother should get the Birthday gift every year. Yet I do feel I deserve a pat on the back when a property expires and I re-list it and it finally sells! that means I took a while but, I did my job! not "the best I could."

Nice thoughts Brandy, As I get up there I am hating Birthdays!! I am as old as the state of Alaska (my second home) When Alaska turns 50 so will I - I am thinking of trying to run that race in Seward on the 4th of July - was there this past 4th and thought what an idea :) Glad you had a re-list and a sale -
