Labor Day

Happy Birthday, Shirl Girl!
You're my auntie.
Who stood in my wedding line
because I needed another Mom
for my husband
but secretly I was glad
I needed an excuse
because I love you and
wanted to include you
on my special day.
You're a labor of love
for those who can't do for themselves
what you can do for them.
I like this picture with the fork
because you love food, like me,
and luncheons,
and making relish and goodies.
So forks up! Happy Birthday!
I Love You.

Thank you all for the early birthday wishes (the 11th is the actual day), but I'll take them no matter when. When was that picture taken? I've seen more pictures of me eating--guess that's one of the things I love best--good food, friends, and family. I love you all, too.
