You never fail to make me teary - probably because what you write is simply the truth. Thank you.

I celebrate (belatedly) the gift that your birthday is to me. I agree with Erika, the images you create with your words are as magical an inspiration as the weather. (Although I will add, after fifteen inches of snow up here in the great northeastern hinterland I'm feeling a little less wonder and a bit more horror about the weather lately.)
