Happy Birthday Bou!!!

Today is a VERY good day. No doubt about it.

Today is Bou's birthday.

If you've visited over here much at all you know that she is not just a fellow blogger, a BlogSister, but one of my very good friends. Actually - she's more like a real life sister.

I hope you make it a daily habit to stop over and read of her latest adventures. If you aren't - you are missing out on a treat. She faces everything with focus, dedication and humor. But - and I have to rub it in here folks - as good as her blog is, it doesn't come close to how GREAT the woman is.

I can honestly say I don't know what I would do without her friendship. She has talked me through panic attacks before/during/after hurricanes. She shares her wisdom when I'm trying to make decisions. Her comfort when times get tough. And through it all the most important thing - it's all unconditional. I don't have to BE a certain way, I just have to be.

This post doesn't begin to do justice to my friend. Neither have the 7 other ones that I've deleted before this morning. But then again - I don't think anything I could come up with could.

So I say Happy Birthday Bou. You are a gift of joy and love to all of us lucky enough to have you in our lives. Thank you for all you are and all you do.

May this year bring you joy, laughter, warmth and love. My you see your dreams come to life. And may you know at least as much happiness and you bring to others.

Thank you, my friend. You're the best and most wonderful. Who would have thought I would have owed the blogosphere so much by introducing someone like you into my life? I would never have guessed, but feel so blessed!

And seeing you two together, I have to say that you LOOK like sisters too. Practically twins! :-D
