Today is Thursday, May 27th, 2010; Karen's Korner #1829
It's somebody's birthday; somewhere today, and tomorrow.....
Tuesday, June 1 is our daughter Merry's birth day; she would have been 37.
Today a friend and I are taking another friend, Bev, to a tea room for her birthday, which is tomorrow.
On Monday, our son-in-law Ed (Merry's husband) and his wife Heather had a new baby, Hannah Katherine;
she is welcomed by her three-year-old sister, Eva.
For my birthday, Judy Weir gave me a book of sayings titled, "A Birthday Celebration: I'm so glad God made You!"
Some sayings taken from that book for the people listed above and everyone else on their big 'day':
There is something in every season, in every day,
to celebrate with thanksgiving.
~ Gloria Gaither

Every day we live is a pricelss gift of God,
loaded with possibilities
to learn something new;
to gain fresh insights.
~ Dale Evans Rogers

Grace means God accepts me just as I am.
He does not require or insist that I measure up to someone else's standard of performance.
He loves me completely, thoroughly, and perfectly.
There's nothing I can do to add or detract from that love.
~ Mary Graham
**
God will never, never, never let us down
if we have faith and put our trust in Him.
He will always look after us.
~ Mother Teresa

Time is a precious gift of God;
so precious that it's only given to us
moment by moment.
~ Amelia Barr

I wish you all the joy that you can wish.
~ William Shakespeare

He is first, and He is last!
And we are gathered up in between,
as in great arms of eternal lovingkindness.
~ Amy Carmichael
