Thanks to everyone for all of the more than kind birthday wishes. I am a very, very lucky person to have so many folks that I care about and so many that I admire wishing me well on this, the beginning of the 40th year of my life. You guys are amazing and I SO appreciate all of the love. It really does mean so much to me! Even more than that, to share this birthday party with my daughter is one of the best if not the best thing that’s ever happen to me EVER! My girls are my everything and to be with them on this day is such an amazing bonus. I’ve never really cared that much for these later birthdays and to enjoy this day with Maisie is a dream come true! No one could write it any better. Truly.

For those of you that left me a message on Facebook, Twitter and other social media, please expect something back from me personally. It might take some time but it’s something that I really like to do. You took the time to reach out to me and the least that I can do is reciprocate the same to you.

Thanks so much to everyone and now – if you’ll excuse me – I have my daughter’s birthday party to attend. Well it’s for me too – but it’s really for her.

All love,
