~ I am 60 ......

..... years young today.
How did that happen?
Where have the years gone?
Where is that little girl?
Ah!  She's still around......
sometimes when I look in the mirror
and see beyond the crows feet
and the puppet marks
and the lovely inherited
family jowls,
I see her twinkling in my eyes.
I hear her when I laugh.
We've come a long way.
We've been through a whole lot.
We embrace my 60 year old self.
Happy Birthday to me!
