I thought I was seeing things in a different light. Decided to see if you had started a new thread. No you had not. Then I realized that things were not as they seemed. Anyway, I wanted to pop in to wish you a Happy Birthday and may you enjoy the new earrings from your hubby. I know and remember your dad’s passing. My dad passed away on June 23rd. His birthday was June 18th. The pain of my dad’s passing is still there but has become a bit more bearable over the years. I remember the time when our first stereo record player was delivered. It was in a piece of furniture where the top opened up and the knobs along with the spindle were inside. I could not wait to place a vinyl inside. There I was sprawled out on the shag carpet and before I knew it dad joined me. The music played and we were mesmerized by the sound and the feeling we were sitting in our seats in the theater. It was that good. Those memories is what helps me get through the anniversary of his passing and in time your memories will help you as well. I would not be surprised if you will see a beautiful butterfly dipping it’s wings towards you on your special day. Just remember to smile and say “thank you.”

Sheba, love the birthday festivities. I can wear the earring but have to wait for the pendant. We will go to the coast for an early dinner.

Hope you and your family have a great time celebrating your birthday. 🎂🎈🎂 💕
I know you miss your Father and maybe he’ll send a butterfly.

Made some corn muffins today. I need to practice a bit more as they were dry, not that I eat them. U know who does 🙂

If You Say My Eyes Are Beautiful
Song by Whitney Houston ‧

If you say my eyes are beautiful
It’s because they’re looking at you
And if you could only see yourself
You’d feel the same way too
You could say that I am a dreamer
Who’s had a dream come true
If you say my eyes are beautiful
It’s because they’re looking at you
Ooh if you wonder why I’m smiling
It’s because I’m happy with you
And the warm sensations touch my heart
And fill me through and through
I could hold you close forever
And never let you go
If you say my eyes are beautiful
It’s because I just love you so
Ooh now my heart is an open door
Won’t you come inside for more?
You give love so sweetly now
Take my love
Take me completely now
Ooh if you say my eyes are beautiful
It’s because they’re looking at you
And my eyes are just the window
For my feelings to come through
And by far you are more beautiful
Than anything I’ve ever known
If you say my eyes are beautiful
If you say my eyes are beautiful
If you say my eyes, my eyes are beautiful
It’s because
It’s because
They’re looking at you

Count On Me
Song by CeCe Winans and Whitney Houston

Count on me through thick and thin
A friendship that will never end
When you are weak I will be strong
Helping you to carry on
Call on me, I will be there
Don’t be afraid
Please believe me when I say
Count on me
I can see it’s hurting you
I can feel your pain
It’s hard to see the sunshine through the rain
I know sometimes it seems as if
It’s never gonna end
But you’ll get through it
Just don’t give in ’cause you can
Count on me through thick and thin
A friendship that will never end
When you are weak I will be strong
Helping you to carry on
Call on me, I will be there
Don’t be afraid
Please believe me when I say
Count on me
I know sometimes it seems as if
We’re standing all alone
But we’ll get through it
‘Cause love won’t let us fall
Count on me through thick and thin
A friendship that will never end
When you are weak I will be strong
Helping you to carry on
Call on me, I will be there
Don’t be afraid
Please believe me when I say
Count on me
There’s a place inside all of us
Where our faith in love begins
You should reach to find the truth in love
The answers’ there within, oh
I know that life can make you feel
It’s much harder than it really is
But we’ll get through it
Just don’t give in
Count on me through thick and thin
A friendship that will never end
When you are weak I will be strong
Helping you to carry on
Call on me, I will be there
Don’t be afraid
Please believe me when I say
Count on me
Count on me
Count on me
Count on me
Count on me
Count on me
Oh yes you can
Oh I can
Sure you can
So glad I can count on me

I Will Always Love You
Song by Whitney Houston ‧

If I should stay, I would only be in your way
So I’ll go, but I know
I’ll think of you every step of the way
And I will always love you
I will always love you
You, my darling you, hm
Bittersweet memories
That is all I’m taking with me
So, goodbye
Please, don’t cry
We both know I’m not what you, you need
And I will always love you
I will always love you, you
I hope life treats you kind
And I hope you have all you’ve dreamed of
And I wish to you joy and happiness
But above all this, I wish you love
And I will always love you
I will always love you
I will always love you
I will always love you
I will always love you
I, I will always love you
You, darling, I love you
Ooh, I’ll always, I’ll always love you

Greatest Love of All
Song by Whitney Houston

… I believe the children are our future
Teach them well and let them lead the way
Show them all the beauty they possess inside
Give them a sense of pride to make it easier
Let the children’s laughter remind us how we used to be
… Everybody’s searching for a hero
People need someone to look up to
I never found anyone who fulfilled my needs
A lonely place to be
And so I learned to depend on me
… I decided long ago
Never to walk in anyone’s shadows
If I fail, if I succeed
At least I’ll live as I believe
No matter what they take from me
They can’t take away my dignity
… Because the greatest love of all
Is happening to me
I found the greatest love of all
Inside of me
The greatest love of all
Is easy to achieve
Learning to love yourself
It is the greatest love of all
… I believe the children are our future
Teach them well and let them lead the way
Show them all the beauty they possess inside
Give them a sense of pride to make it easier
Let the children’s laughter remind us how we used to be
… I decided long ago
Never to walk in anyone’s shadows
If I fail, if I succeed
At least I’ll live as I believe
No matter what they take from me
They can’t take away my dignity
… Because the greatest love of all
Is happening to me
I found the greatest love of all
Inside of me
The greatest love of all
Is easy to achieve
Learning to love yourself
Is the greatest love of all
… And if, by chance, that special place
That you’ve been dreaming of
Leads you to a lonely place
Find your strength in love

Peace Out Peeps enjoy your evening and stay safe and cool. 😎
