WOW!!!...phenomenal....you're phenomenal. Thank you for your cards, flowers, cakes...hugs, good wishes and ornery cards. ( loved the one about the wrinkled butt!). Have much to write, but need to run into work. Soooo thankful for you.......I'm humbled.
Much love, Sue

9:08 PM...work was wacko! ...and tomorrow will be more nuts. It's OK...I work with a lot of wonderful people and they are really good to me.

I called my boss this morning and asked if she needed and extra pair of hands today thru Monday. The reason was not only Mother's Day...but Rabbi Harold Kushner will be speaking to Norm and Suzy's congregation in Columbus. He's known world wide for his wisdom, compassion and his books. He wrote When Bad Things Happen To Good People and also Overcoming Life's Disappointments, just to name a few. Often his words brought comfort at three in the morning and I felt blessed to have found him via his writings. Now, to sit and hear him teach...personally, it will be a tremendous opportunity and moment for me.

Now, about this whole birthday thing...thanks to you, it was a wonderful day. The love, cards, good wishes, surprises...(at the Fresh Market!!!...boy was I surprised)...I am sooooooo thankful for each and every one. Oh, and the songs...you sang to me...and I must say...some of you really should sing softly in church...not so good. But you're tones were golden to me. You knocked my socks off...Thank you so so so much! YOU'RE WONDERFUL!!!

As I was driving to work yesterday morning, the sun was coming up...it was beautiful and instantly the words to one of my favorite hymns, Great Is Thy Faithfulness, flooded my heart. The lyrics of the chorus are....Great is Thy faithfulness, Oh God, my Father...There is no shadow of turning with thee....Thou changeth not, thy compassions they fail not...as Thou hast been, Thou forever wilt be. Great is thy faithfulness...morning by morning, new mercies I see. All I have needed Thy hand hast provided. Great is Thy faithfulness...Lord, unto me.

So, I guess it's...
60,...and still standing, ...in His grace.
Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
Love, Sue
