I blew it. Yes, I know that today is your birthday, and I am (and have been) thinking of you. Despite my best intentions, I forgot to send you a birthday card. You know that I’ve been terribly busy since this “little” drama began, but also know that we’re still far closer than these kinds of limitations reflect. As trite as this entry may be, I trust that you’ll understand my intention and forgive my carelessness.
I’ve been thinking about you all day. I am hoping all kinds of good things for you. I’m hoping that you’ll spend a little time with you father today, and a little time with close friends, and a little time with yourself. And I hope that you have a very special day.
I love you very much, Narelle. God bless.
(Of course, you can always call. Come to think of it, so can I!)
