Oh Anita, I have a tear in my eye from that last picture...the light of life - how beautiful! To have the light of life is a special thing indeed. Your post today was so magical. It really hit home because Jess just changed her career and is becoming an elementary teacher. Please read about it and give her any advice you can give. She is seeing the woman she used to be, as you have said, and is knowing the woman she is now. What a wonderful sentiment for all of us to see, Anita. Have a wonderful weekend, my dear. I may go to the Zoo tomorrow. I love animals, and the closer I am to them, the better.
You look amazing in your crown. Happy Birthday to you, precious one!
Love you,
~Sheri at Red Rose Alley
Anita! Oh yes, April is your birthday month as well! I have many friends who are aries, i just love this sign with it's fiery and passionate spirit. And hey, you already ARE the WOMAN and the ARTIST - so strong and beautiful! Have a fabulous and lovely weekend dearest!

It is nice to know that...or finally "figure out" that we are still "becoming"
going towards that "light"
using our "faith"
Taking that "leap through the unknown"
HAPPY BIRTHDAY !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I loved the photo of you...were you homecoming queen??.....with the football player kneeling in front of you.
It surely made me smile as it made me recall all those years all 4 of my sons played high school football
(and for Matt, he had a football college scholarship)
AND...MATT was his high schools FIRST homecoming KING (they never used to do that)
sorry, just brought back a lot of fun memories.
Dearest Anita
I would love to sing Happy Birthday along with Linnie here, but I am not sure you would enjoy.. A singer I am not.. But what I am is..... amazed by your gift of words, art and your never ending support and friendship.. Yes, Birthday girl, it is right around the corner. Do you have a Birthday wish? Bebe is asking.
BISOUS! Penny

Blessings for a wonderful year and a happy birthday day!

Beautiful and I LOVE the quote. It sounds as if you and I are on very similar journeys. My life didn't go as planned so I am now all about not settling and being disappointed with the outcome but instead, creating my life and shaping it into what I want it to become! xo
Hello my friend!
What an inspirational post and it meets you right where you are at. What an exciting year this will be with change and growth and taking the next step to where your hopes and dreams are waiting.
The hope and anticipation of ones future is so exciting. The anticipation of what is to come, who we will meet, who we will become, is precious, in His sight. It is all in His greater plan for us.
Went down the road, traveled south yesterday to a swap meet and bought up lots of vintage charming toys. I have a secret, that is not a secret anymore, I would like to start selling some of them in various avenues and yesterday I was invited to a show at Craven Farm to be a vendor in June. This has made my heart so happy.
I am celebrating a day off today but it will be full, planning the wedding shower I'm giving for Kara this weekend. I am combining your soft teal blue with lavender for the colors and making the whole event, simple yet stunning. My pictures will not download so I have a bit of a stumbling block but one day, I'll be able to get my personal ones back posting.
Thinking of you and the beauty you create for the world, each day.
My love and hugs,
Jackie
Beautiful post Anita! Have a wonderful birthday! I like to celebrate mine all month long...actually even longer than that, as my coming trip to Maui is for my birthday, and my birthday isn't until July! Have a great week:)
Jenniferxox
We are reborn each day.
I love your etsy store items!
HUGS and my dearest thoughts go out to you, as I too spread my wings.

Your blog is beautiful and inspiring, I'm so happy I found it! I look forward to seeing more :-)
Well, my dearest birthday girl, without knowing it was your birthday, I have highlighted your sweet self in the post I just created! We are kindred spirits, indeed, and do not ever wonder if I ever go a day without you in my thoughts or prayers. It simply never happens...you are always there...your light shining from your cottage to mine.
With much love, dearest, for a fabulous day of celebrating you,
Christie
Good evening dear Anita,
Thank you so much for your visit yesterday, I am so happy you enjoyed your little Tweety! Wanted to thank you again and wish you a beautiful week...

Dearest Anita!!!!!
I love this new post!!!! The photos are beautiful & you always have that fabulous Tiffany blue color mixed in!!!
We both have April birthdays!!!! I turned 38 on Friday The 13th!!! It came & went SO quickly!!!! My parebts arrived at our home to spend the weekend with us. They had been in Arizona the past 4 months & were headed back to Chicago. My mom gave me a gorgeous real turquoise Emer Thompson necklace she had bought in Scottsdale. There's photos in my new blog post.
We had fondue dinner on Friday night- I ordered a delicious Oreo cookie martini!!!
It was so special to spend my birthday with my husband & parents. I didn't get to see my parents for my birthday last year- they were in Mexico with friends.
I hope you had a fabulous weekend!!!!
Thank you, always, for your uplifting comments!!!!
You are a special friend; I feel blessed to know you!!!
Hugs!!!!
Shannon :-)
Dearest Anita, best, best wishes to you for your birthday. Hope its a fun one! Your posts are so lovely. I want to show my daughter as she has lost her hope in life and I want to try and help her. Love your mosaic of your crafts. You are so truly talented and original with your creations which is why i tagged you. hope its okay as Id love to learn more about you.Fiona x
ANITA!!!
Yes, I'm shouting your name because I've missed visiting you SO MUCH!! What a beautiful message in this very beautiful post! You never disappoint mi amiga. I remember last year when I was wishing you Happy Birthday. Time sure flies, doesn't it? I hope you will have a fabulous birthday. Nice catching up with you:-). XX
Oh, I can't believe I missed your birthday!!! Or did I ??? What day is it? Well, happy , Happy Birthday to you, which ever day it is!!! I know you told me you were going to be "Mid-Century", which is a very cool age to be! And with all those wonderful pictures of yourself you certainly have made some fabulous memories. How pretty you look as a Queen in your crown!! and I still remember you and Ruben going down the "Yellow Brick Road"!
Have lots of balloons and pink frosting, dear!
xx
dawne
Have many happy returns of the day! Wishing you all the light and tenderness of the world! I don't know the girl you used to be, but the woman you are, althought we never met, I appreciate!
Tu es en pleine féerie, chère Anita. Ton monde est merveilleux.
Je t'embrasse à très bientôt. Fine
I RESIGNED too! I actually told the Principal just yesterday. You and I are so nsync!:-). It was way too much for me and personally I don't think it's worth it. Taking care of my family is more important, PLUS, I have been so exhausted and can barely find the time to do anything else! That is not living life to the fullest at all. So, like you as of June 8 (the last day for the students), I will be officially unemployed:-). Hope you're having a wonderful week.
Happy birthday, Anita! Thank you for using your influence to spread beauty and light.
What a lovely homecoming queen you were, and what an even more beautiful woman you are today!
Blessings,
Cindy at Notes in the Key of Life
what a beautiful pictures...truly inspirational post...

A wonderful story, Dear- and:
HAPPY, HAPPY BIRTHDAY- ANITA!!!!
So we are both aries :-) My birthday was last Sunday...
And I know that feeling- inside we are always a little girl- but life wants to be that strong woman without fear and strength and power. But sometimes we want only this little girl to be again...
My daughter made me a childrens birthday table with a barbie crown and fairies... I loved it :-)
You are a really pretty one, when you were a girl- your long hair looked great!
Enjoy your week-
XO- Ines
Good morning My sweet friend .
Today we are having a special day
mixed feelings . Last chemo day for my beautiful and brave Elisabeth .
Anyway this part of the journey is done ! She did it ! And the way she did it all was amazing-brave.
Two days ago she was shopping and she is a beautiful personality ..... next to her two cars bumped to oneanother .
The driver of the cars got out and she heard the driver of the car say
"Its because of her ....I had to look at her !"
That's my girl . I guess this driver will never know today she is having her last chemo !
I want to thank you with all my heart for being there for me my friend . I love you and hug you !
Have a special day !
When I was a teen, a friend of mine told me when she was a kid, she went to visit an old aunt in Manhattan. One day, an elderly neighbor came to visit. The thing was, although she "looked" old, she wasn't! She acted just like they did and was full of the energy of youth... bursting with curiosity. She played games with her and had a wonderful time. It changed the way she thought about "old people". It was years later that she discovered the old lady was none other than Lillian Gish!!! That's the way I want to be "old".
I'd like to think if we do it right, we don't grow old but we grow–– smarter, stronger and in so many ways better. By striving and not settling or calcifying we never stop growing.
Have a great birthday, lovely Anita. Always shine that wonderful light of yours, won't you???
Good morning my friend...sorry I have not visited for a few days...our Swedish friend has taken up my every moment. We adored her and made so many magical memories.
It is almost Friday...we can do it...but for some reason I am extra tired today...it will be a long long day..off to have an extra strong cup of tea! xoxooxo Have a good one.
and what a beautiful woman you have become my dear Anita!!!! Happy Birthday to you!!!
I adore those pictures of you and the collage of all your talent!!
Have an amazing Spring day my sweet friend.
sending many hugs your way...
Dearest Anita, thank you for your lovely visit! I so love your fairy slippers here, so delicately made! Am sure you'll craft up a storm as soon as you'll have more time - even now, it is fantastic. Have a sweet day my friend! xx
Where the Light is there is no darkness at all; the Light gives us hope. Thank you for your beautiful thoughts and pictures. Jo @ Let's Face the Music

as "no-reply blogger." Did you
get a chance to check your Blogger
settings?
I know that I have your e-mail
address "on the side," but by
enabling your e-mail address
in your profile, I can reply directly
to your comment, even from
my phone, which would be SO
handy : ) Thanks a million!
Hope your week is off to a
wonderful start!

I can't wait to see your life sized shoes! I just know they will be gorgeous, and fit for a queen! Hope your etsy items are flying off of the shelves..you are an amazing talent Anita, in so many venues. xoxox Christel
You find the best photos!
Hey, I missed one! And a belated Happy Birthday to you. How did/are you spending it? Wishing you so many more being the woman you wish to be. So love your photo picks and the words you bead together like jewelry.
Big hugs and birthday wishes!

I am late to say Happy Birthday but can still say thank you for sharing your deep soulful thoughts with your readers. They touch me each and every time! What a catch in the throat - "76" football player - that was my son's number, and I havent seen him in way too long as he's not a child anymore and has BIG wings like the angel pictured!!!
