Wish Tink a Jubilant birthday filled with Laughter, Dancing, Love and Frienship, and maybe even an adventure or two

Here’s an equine cake in celebration of your horse-riding goal, and a bonus GIF for your sign language goal.

_{Trust me, it’s a relevant sign.}

Not counting me, a total of 43 people adopted this goal.

A dear friend who hails originally from Malta tells me that it’s customary in that country on one’s birthday to give something to friends, not just sit back and receive.

So before I close out this goal, I extend to each of you more than just my heartfelt thanks. Along with that gratitude, please accept my fervent wish that you experience every joy you’ve wished for me, and then some.

May you all stay Forever Young:

May your hands always be busy, / May your feet always be swift, / May you have a strong foundation / When the winds of changes shift. / May your heart always be joyful, / May your song always be sung, / And may you stay forever young. / Forever young, forever young – / May you stay forever young.

Just caught that it WAS your bday..shoot :))) You are a joy to know.

I’ve finally shaken loose a chunk of time to answer everyone properly.

I think I managed to cheer most of the entries “on the fly,” but couldn’t sit down to respond individually until now (Saturday morning, a week after the birthday in question). It’s been a hectic week: in between all the wild partying, a bunch of my time and energy was swallowed by a big project at work – something quite interesting, and different from what I normally get to do. Turned in a draft on Thursday: I was proud of it, and pleased to learn that the project manager made only some minor changes before passing it along to the higher-ups.

Having explained – and, I hope, somewhat excused my delay in responding, I shall now begin actually, well, responding.

I totally spaced and now I’m late. But HAPPY BIRTHDAY TINK!! I hope you had a great bday!!

I hope you have a fantastic day filled with inspiration and adventure!!

May you have the most wonderful birthday in your life so far. May the festivities in one form another follow you daily. May your year be blessed with great joy, freedom to express yourself, lots of love and favor in all your relationships and may you see through the eyes of opportunity all around you.

Happy Birthday Tink!

I was about to start apologising for being late, and then I noticed that it means I get to write your birthday entry number 43, so I’m glad instead :o)

I hope you had a wonderful day and that you’re still celebrating! It’s a pleasure and a blessing to know you, and I’m so glad you’re here.

I thought I posted this message a second ago, so sorry if it’s a repeat… Again, I’m so happy to celebrate your birthday, and thank you for delighting us here on 43T.

Y te dedico esta cancio que e disfrutado much desde cumplir mis cuarenta anos: Senora de las Cuatro Decadas

I trust your day was fabulous AND! I wish the entire year, THIS entire year… is better than you could have ever hoped it to be with lots of dancing, laughter, friendship and naturally… jubilation in abundance!

Much Much love,

Julie!
