Happy Birthday!

But--"Inch Time Foot Gem"? Come again?

You're starting to cramp my mid-life cynism, Gerard! There's curiosity and there's wonderment but being grateful is an entirely different thing. Thank you for this reminder. I hope you had a beautiful birthday... like a beach.

Happy Birthday Gerard. I second what Sara said.
Semper Gratis.

Happy Belated BD! I was away for a few days. MIL was in hospital the entire week of Christmas - thankful that she is home and mending nicely. Like you.

Next year's birthday will be even better!
