HAPPY BIRTHDAY JENNIE!!!

Every time I had to write today's date at work today I thought, "it's my baby's birthday", really I did.

I still say that we did not name you for your grandmothers but it is a lucky co-incidence isn't it? We chose those names because we liked them, no other reason.

Happy Birthday Jennie,
Hope life is percolating along for you (my mom loves that phrase).
Spiffy quote for you:
"life isn't about finding yourself, it is about creating yourself". I am still working on this one, but it gives ya something to ponder, eh?

*gasp* I totally missed your birthday, maybe it had something to do with not really knowing the date yesterday!! Goodness...you are my favorite sister named Jennie...I am ashamed of myself.

Seriously, Happy Birthday Dear Jennie! I hope next year we will be able to celebrate you 33rd together!

Lots of love!! Laura

Happy Belated Birthday!!! Thanks for sharing all those little-known facts...how fun! Yeah, we're already a week into Summer II and have a Debra test tomorrow, so it's a Happy July 4th for us (note sarcastic tone). Lucky for me, I've found myself a good lookin' study buddy this summer who keeps me in line ;-)
