Today is my daughter’s birthday.  She’s throwing a slumber party with a dramatic theme –a four act play complete with costumes (duct tape tiaras and fabric store remnants turned into togas).  Her enthusiasm and creativity is boundless.  I had written a lovely post about birthday party tips, but lost it somehow, so will share with you later.  For now, remember that birthdays are a blessing and the joy is in the celebration, not what it costs or how fancy the presents are.
