Are there birthday parties in heaven...
filled with colorful balloons sent aloft from heavyhearted ones on Earth,
with scrumptious chocolate cake and soft billowy frosting scooped from heavenly sweet clouds.
Will there be dear little friends...
gathered close to help her celebrate in my absence.
In heaven are there thoughtfully chosen gifts...
filled with her favorite things...like ski suits,
and giggly bubble bath.
And what of birthday shopping in heaven...
gazing through shop windows...
stopping for Juicy Couture...
and shoes...lots and lots of shoes...but especially heels!
Likewise on this birthday...
is she giddy with excitement at the upcoming ski season, as the first blanket of snow has covered our mountains.
exciting vacations to fun places,
and cell phones.
So today my friends as you go through the details of a Saturday routine...remember that it's Jiggy day!
The day we eat brownies for breakfast and ice-cream for dinner. The day to wrap your arms snug around friends and even tighter around family. Make every moment of your life magical and make each moment matter!
You can bet there will be a celebration both here and in heaven. Go big or go home!
A very tender heartfelt post. I'll wear my Jiggy yellow bracelet today to remember your dear redhead.
