Happy Birthday, FLIP!




You are a lovely man, and I treasure you.

Thank you for your many gifts to me, especially that you understand me perfectly and love me anyway.

Your wit and intellectual curiosity still delight me, and your kindness to all has taught me to be kinder, too.

You make me feel safe, and I know that together, we can handle anything.

It's been a great ride, and the (k)night is still young.

Love,
S

Happy Birthday, Flip!!

It is obvious from observing the love of a woman with such class that you are quite a man. How could she fall for any man less than a super man?

Have a wonderful birthday, Flip, and many, many, many more.

Love the little banner floating by! Happy BDay, Flip!

Wish I could make your crazy neighbor disappear as a present!

Chani, Wng, Seventh, Cece, Meno, (Isn't he, though?) David, (Yes, he's all that,) Sweet Pea, Liz (NOW you're talking.)

I'm back. Me. Susan. But I have relayed everybody's good and kind wishes to Flip, and he thanks you all very much. And so do I.

Besos to all.

Oh, I hope to write like this about my guy someday. ;)

Lone Grey Squirrel said...

Happy Birthday Flip! P.s. I agree with you most of the time when you and Hearts don't agree on something but I doubt she'd ever tell you that. havea great day and a great year.

Ian Lidster said...

That is very moving. As you are a lucky woman, he is a lucky man. Blessings to you both.

Rachel said...

Beautiful! I love public avowals of love and gratitude. This is a great one.

Happy birthday!

P.S. Hearts, I forgot to mention this before: I nominated you for an award on Monday. (All this talk of books forced it out of my mind. :( Sorry.)

Bob said...

happy (belated) birthday, Flip!

bastard - trying to make the rest of us look bad? how can I possibly live up to you?

Having such great respect and affection for you, I can only guess that your partner must be a human of rare exceptionalness.

And I liked the way the post title moved in! Very groovy.

furiousBall said...

I echo Franki's comment. Knowing what a nice person you are, I bet Flip rocks socks as well. Happy B-day!

Wanderlust Scarlett said...

That's so great!

Happy Birthday Flip!

Here's to birthday cake and parties!

Best of luck and love in the coming year.

Scarlett & V.

Scarlet,

You will.

Jali,

who thanks you!

Squirrel,

Taking the 5th here.

Ian,

Sometimes we just get it right.

Rachel,

I'm normally more private, but Flip is special.

Bob,

All you need is a suit with a big "S" on it.

Franki,

Back atcha with that respect and affection!

Furious,

He does. And I'm guessing it takes one to know one.

Scarlett,

We're going to kill off the rest of the cake with our morning coffee, but birthdays are forever.
