Happy Birthday To Me Quotes

Source(google.com.pk)

When I called my niece Mia early this morning to wish her a happy seventh birthday, she was relishing a weather-related school delay and the last bites of a special pancake breakfast. I could hear her smiling through the phone 1,500 miles away. In her account of this weekend’s party, she said, "They scared me!" of the booming "SURPRISE!"
This, coming from the girl who is fearless on the jungle gym, on the soccer field, and at the stove. With my sister’s supervision, inspired by and other Food Network favorites, Mia the burgeoning chef helps prepare many of their family meals. She’s as fluent in combining flavors as she is hanging upside down by her long, limber legs and barreling through clusters of fellow first graders in pursuit of the ball. When she isn’t ignoring her, she would do anything to protect her little sister Anna, who is always chattering and laughing away in the background as we talk, and brave in her own ways.
Mia was most excited to tell me about two aspects of her upcoming day: “Mommy is coming into my class to read us a story, and I get to wear a crown all day.” Although I'm not there to see her blow out seven lucky candles, I have my own wish: that she continues to play and cook and read as fearlessly as she does today for the rest of her life, and that she always treats herself like a queen, even when that crown might be invisible.
As much as Mia knows I adore her, sometimes it’s a challenge to feel connected from a distance, so I've come up with a plan for the coming year: to turn our Skype chats into a Hero-and-Heroine Book Club. We’ll read bits of biographies aloud to one another and listen as the other explains how the stories and lessons they contain might apply in our own lives.
I’ll start by suggesting that she seek out these life stories on her own bookshelf and at the library. She's already as comfortable there as she is on the monkey bars, thanks to weekly trips to the children's section with her grandma, my mom. Whatever she can’t find, I’ll give to her in a couple of weeks when I see her at Christmas. I can’t wait to learn what books she has in mind, and what lessons she'll have in store for me, all before reaching the wise old age of eight.
