HAPPY BIRTHDAY BLUE EYES

I want to thank KimB for the last few birthday layouts I have done ..this lady is so talented and has a heart of gold . The kit I used to do this birthday layout was called Christmas First.

Yours is the smile

I look forward to each morning,

and yours is the voice

I love to hear throughout the day.

Yours is the touch

that can reach my heart and soul,

and it is your understanding

that so often calms

my doubts and fears....

Yours are the plans

and dreams

that blend with mine,

becoming ours,

and yours is the love

that means the world to me.

My life would be so different

if you weren't a part of it,

and that is why no one

has more to celebrate today

than I do.
