When you lose someone close you have that year of firsts...until yesterday I was thinking of the firsts like their birthdays, mother's and father's day, Christmas, etc...I didn't realize that one of those firsts could be my birthday, but here it is and my parents can't call me to sing Happy Birthday..or in recent years me calling them to say Happy Birthday to me! Last year was my 50th and a few days before both Debbie and I were visiting Mom and Dad was there too. That in itself was different as Dad liked to visit separate from us..anyway, my folks gave me a card that they had both signed..and that was hard for Mom..I still have the card as it was very special to me!
Debbie, I didn't even think about this on your birthday..I don't know if you had these feelings too..I'm sorry I didn't figure that out back in September..
I have had a good birthday though..good friends and a wonderful family!!!

I did have similar thoughts. I was praying for you!!! That's part of why I made sure I sang to you yesterday. Sigh....
I love you Sister!!!
