Do You Have An April Birthday? Then This Is For You

by Joanna on April 5, 2008

I sent this song* during the week to a very good Twitter friend of mine, Alina Popescu who blogs at Words Of A Broken Mirror.  It was a virtual birthday present.  Ever since I sent it the words have been bouncing round my head and happily reminding me of my youth. 

And seeing as how it’s also my birthday today I thought I’d share it with you, and gift it to all those special people whose birthdays fall in April.  Enjoy!

Hi Debbie, if you’re birthday’s Tuesday the song is perfect for you! I hope you like it

Steve, thanks so much for stopping by and for writing me a sherku. That was a wonderful present. I can’t wait for our JJL meet up in Chicago either.

Karen, it is indeed a month of celebration, and I’m enjoying having so many new and wonderful friends to share it with

Hau‘oli la hanau to Joanna Young!

Surely you know Joanna by now too: She is the personification of our Ho‘ohana Community in Scotland! Today is her birthday. Because of Joanna, I can now spell Edinburgh right the first time, without checking, and knowing that she is

Happy April birthday Joanna! Mine isn’t until May, but I do know so many creative people in the April / May time slot.

I’m just a tad late with my birthday greetings, Joanna. But you are such a good friend, I simply need to say I hope you are richly blessed as you move to Arran. May this year be the best one yet!

Joanna Young 04.09.08 at 6:25 am

Thank you so much Robyn.

It’s certainly starting well with lots of good wishes from my wonderful blogging friends, and I’ve more celebrations lined up later in the week…

Joanna
