Lately, I have had the opportunity to gain a better understanding of the meaning of family; I have been simply amazed at what family is, and what family does. I am grateful for my family. And glad to be a part of it.

There is a very special member of the family that I want to shout out to....

Happy birthday Aunt Mar!!! I decided that today, of all days, would be the best to begin the chronicles of a zoobie. And it is only just the beginning... I promise to try and add a few more bells and whistles later. :)

Thank you so much for everything that you have done for me. You have blessed my life in so many ways. I am grateful for all that you have done for me. I know that I am not only speaking for myself when I say that you are amazing, wonderful... you truly enrich all of our lives. (But how could you not... it is a role that you were born into, and fulfilling ever since.)

I also want to say thanks to my Aunt Margaret. I am really excited to get to know her and her family--my family--better.

Once again, Happy Birthday, Aunt Mar! I hope that today is simply magnificent. You truly deserve the best. Love you!!

Dear Karen,

Thank you so much for your kind words and sweet tribute and the BEST B-day gift ever!
I am so glad that you decided to start. I will check it daily. I am so excited to hear how you view the world and what you have to say about it; along with all of the wonderful happenings in your little world.
You will never regret having written down the things that you are involved in now and your thoughts and feelings about them.
I am so grateful to have you for my niece. I love you.
I love your sweet sister too. My life has been enriched by having been blessed with the two of you in it.
I am realy happy that you now get the opportunity to get to know my sister.
Have fun my favorite little zoobie!
All my love,
Aunt Mar~
