Happy Birthday Iris!  I wanted to let you know how much I value our friendship.  I am not one who makes close girlfriends easily, I have often found friends enter my life for only a season, yet you have stayed.  You have seen the good, bad and ugly, you have encouraged me when I was ready to give up, and cheered the loudest for my accomplishments.  Thank you for friendship.  It is to bad we don’t live in the same state, but times we do get together I am truly blessed.

Thank you for always pointing me back to Him.  And typical me, I have a box for you that will be a few days late.  Great excuse to celebrate the WHOLE WEEK!!

I am closing comments please head on over here and tell Iris Happy Birthday!
