That beautiful face is just ...Sweet, sweet, SWEET! That beautiful face is just what I needed to see tonight. I can't believe it has been a year already. Happy Birthday, Juliet! <br /><br />Karen, the poem is beautiful and wise. How awesome that you have such lovely words to give her. She will cherish it someday. <br /><br />I love the form of the cross. Here's another sister raising her hand. I believe, too. And what an awesome verse. Juliet is finer than the finest pearls on earth. <br /><br />Obviously, I go crazy over babies. I wish I were your neighbor, so I could babysit (or aggravate you to death begging to babysit). Blessings for many more beautiful years to come.Juliehttp://juliebuff.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5474566446391728432.post-55736918139359401882010-11-09T15:35:49.358-05:002010-11-09T15:35:49.358-05:00what a beautiful little child she is, and how love...what a beautiful little child she is, and how lovely and strong your poem is, like a prayer, have my congratulations!SzélsőFahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11600289147447182465noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5474566446391728432.post-22442088742697918832010-11-09T10:40:32.084-05:002010-11-09T10:40:32.084-05:00grandchildren is a rubicon i've yet to cross b...grandchildren is a rubicon i've yet to cross but i've a ntion that when i do i'll be remembering thisswisshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17924594772578153947noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5474566446391728432.post-31454782990539714872010-11-09T07:20:00.886-05:002010-11-09T07:20:00.886-05:00I am behind.
