Geez!! I almost missed it!!!

How can I wish you a most special Birthday?????
Need to find a picture worth a thousand words......
Not easy! I have posted most of them already....

How about something from my trip to Latvia--in 2007????

Here is a common sight there---upright plantings of inpatients and other flowers.
These can be almost 6'+ tall. They are planted on wire frames with plants tucked in
up and down. SOO beautiful!

Happy Birthday to yooooou!!! Gita

To give you an idea of how tall they can be--Here I am next to one....

Happy, Happy Day today, Jill - wishing you the blessings of continued good health and happiness as you celebrate. Here's to another great year! HUGS to you from me, Barb

Edited to try to add a pink flower, but it's not an option after the original has been posted. ;-(

Happy Birthday Critter.
Hope you had a very special day bet Sunshine Girl blew out your candles for you. LOL
I went off to find a pink flower for you yesterday and forgot to come back with it so here it is for you. Just a bit late.

Best wishes for a happy birthday and wonderful year for all your family. Hope yesterday was a wonderful celebration. Pat

I am late - Happy Belated birthday!

Jill, wishing you a belated birthday wish!

Happy birthday, sweetie! And many more! love, julie

Thank you so much, everybody!

We had a wonderful family weekend in Pittsburgh. I shared my cake & candles with my brother, since he doesn't get a birthday this year (he's a leap day kid)... Joyanna was so delighted by the candles, and then she was totally dismayed when we blew them out -- she cried! LOL She did help me unwrap my gifts from my nieces & nephew. :-)

It was just so special to be together with my family.

Ak! How did I miss your birthday Jill lol So glad you had a great time with your family I'm a little late but Happy Birthday! ;)

Lea

Thank you! I'm still celebrating, LOL. I use my birthday as a handy excuse for pretty much the whole month of February.

Oh yes Birthdays deserve a whole month's worth of celebration for sure :)

Oh, Critter!! This is late but nonetheless heartfelt. I hope you had a wonderful birthday and wish you many, many more!!

Critter, bringing another belated caboose to birthday wishes for you and wishing you a year of enchantment to come, and many more beyond that, as well.

Thank you both!

I'll bet that bright lantana really brought the butterflies, Foxy! Bluespiral, my garden is never anywhere near as serene as the one in your image, LOL.

Dear Jill - Sorry to be late about wishing you a very happy birthday. I haven't kept up with all that you have been involved in this year but I do think of you very fondly quite often and wish you and yours all the very best. I won't make it to the seed swap but do hope that we will be able to see each other before 2011 is out.

I think back to all that you have successfully battled over the years and know that you are a strong and faithful soldier. Continue to believe and have the faith. The faith can move mountains. Love you and sincere best wishes for you and yours.

Thanks, Ruby! I know we'll find a way to get together. :-)

Jill, you will have to take a pix of the b-day gift I gave you today & post it. I clean forgot that your birthstone is Amethyst and last night, I was debating on whether to bring you a fossil or a lovely cluster. Glad I picked # 2!

Gosh, why didn't somebody mention it today at the seed swap and we could have sung HB to you? Happy Birthday and may all your dreams come true.

Thank you! I do have to take a photo of that amethyst cluster.. it's stunning, as is the butterfly house Gita gave me. Thanks, ladies!!

I love any thing amethyst. Yummy color.

Ruby

Have a happy birthday and many more , Jill you deserve it . Now here is a picture that I took while I was in France . It is on the Island of Oleron on the Atlantic coast of France, I took this picture in my sister back yard , she has a house there. This is one of my favorite tree, acacia dealbata or yellow mimosa, not only it is beautiful it smells divine ..I am trying to grow some right now I just planted the seeds on Saturday.....

What a stunning tree! Thanks. :-)
