Not just any other day
But one of importance
For my mom and dad
Today’s the day
A little redheaded girl
Came silently through
Their window of life
You should thank them
Seems right, and
Polite, to do
To take a minute
And let them know
Their love, important
They brought me
To you
Oldest Daughter & Red Headed Sister 
I think that’s the only full face portrait I have ever seen of you 🙂

Could be right about that, Michael. My attempt at being an anonymous poet for y’all. 🙂

…and then, one day, that same little red headed girl came to us through the window of wordpress and enlightened us with her words, her compassion, her caring, her prayers and her hugs… and we should all thank them, mom and dad… seems right… for we have all been enlightened by her presence…
Happy belated, Audrey Dawn…

Happy Birthday, Audith! That’s such a great picture. Look at you smiling! But…shouldn’t we get a picture more up to date to compare it with? For instance, what if that’s really not you? Anyway, I’m thankful that your mom and dad had you, that’s for sure.

Thank you, Duketh. Well, it is me, you know. And I could post a picture of me, but then I’m no longer a poet. I’m just me. Maybe that would be horrible. I’m glad they had me, too.

And I owe you a picture still! I haven’t forgotten. Just nothing looks cool enough to snap. You’ve seen everything… I’d like to get the pond for you, but I think it’s really ugly right now. Anything you’d like to see in particular? *laughs* I know that’s not a fair question.
Audith, just you is the special you I know. And I don’t want you to be any different than you are.

This is why you need me there to point a photo out. There’s plenty to choose from, I bet. I’ve not seen everything…isn’t possible, even if trees are seemingly everything to me. I want the pond. Ugly or not, I shall transform it with my words. *bites off more than she can chew* *coughs* I can think on it, but truly I wouldn’t know. *smiles* Tisn’t fair, but it is a valid question.
*crumbles into sand* Duketh, that is the most romantic….who are you?! *speechless* Blushes a thousand shades. Thank you, always. ♡

Oh, you’d make everything look great. The pond? You sure? It’s better in the summer. Then again, maybe the garage at night? Bet you’d like that, madam.

Stop buttering me up, Duketh. Okay save the pond for summer then, if you must. What about the garage at night? What happens in there???? I want a picture of it.

Happy Happy Birthday, Audrey! What a little red-haired sweetie you were (and still are, you know!) I love how you’ve thanked your parents for life and their nurturing love — but methinks most babies enter the world with lusty shouts, rather than “silently”!! 😉 Enjoy your special day, my friend!
