birthday girl*

Please take a cupcake—they are fresh!Hello lovelies, would you like to help wish maggie a happy birthday? Here’s the thing...she’s sleeping now and when she wakes up it will be her 23rd birthday weekend and you, yes YOU, her wonderfully kind faithful friends will already have been busy little elves sending wishes from around the world all the way to Nepal, right here, on this little blog! How sweet is that? I think it will be an absolutely gorgeous way for the birthday girl to start the day (that is after she makes her 27 peanut butter and jelly sandwiches and walks the kids to school). Yes, even birthday gals need to make lunch. I know she adores every single message you send, so please let’s have some fun! Will you leave maggie a birthday wish?                 A poem? A special quote? A rad song? A note from your sweet heart to her sweet heart? You are the gift. And you are beautiful! Thank you! xxxo, lil’ birdie  

P.S. Won't you please spread the word and keep the love soaring!

Let's get this party started with some music! *It takes a few secs to load...enjoy!

Happy 23rd Birthday Maggie! I found your website a few months ago, and have been following ever since.
You are such an inspirational person, and have done so much in your 23 years that many don't acheive
in a lifetime. Hope you have a great day!

Good morning, so precious, soon-to-be birthday girl!! I already feel like we've all had a party in your honor just watching this wonderful video, visiting that lovely poem, being reminded (as if we who visit here often need to be!) of the full range of your shining light, reflected in every one of your children's faces. Oh dearest Maggie,
how far you've "journeyed" in this past year, taking so many of us along as much as possible for this incredible ride; may the coming year be filled with paths-made-smooth, dreams-come-to-life, and love, love, love everywhere you turn. Happy, happy birthday, Maggie!!! Thank you for being born!
