Birthday 2004
11 March 2004
The
significance of Roses and Lilies
My favourite flowers are Roses and
lilies. Roses and Lilies have been symbols of Mary since earliest times. The
rose, emblematic of her purity, glory and sorrow, was her attribute as Queen of
Heaven and a symbol of her love for God and for Christ, her son. The lily
represented her immaculate purity, her innocence and virginity.
Tributes to my beloved friends
Valerie, Hui Min, JOAN AND VERONICA
This year I received bouquets of Lilies. How apt. It surely speaks loads of my personality...(",) You gals have been my best friends through good times and the bad. I am always glad that you are there for me whenever I needed you. Thank you so much for the pink lilies which brighten up my work space. It is definitely relaxing to the eye and for my spirit. The flowers and the vase are definitely something to remember you wonderful gals by. Now I even have a vase to replenish with new lilies.
Wonderful Evening with Alan Noble
Thank you ALAN, my dear friend, for making my birthday a truly memorable one this year. Now what have I done, or not done, to deserve such wonderful company? ...(",)
My Birthday would not have been complete without your company. As usual, I think your timing could not have been more apt. I could not be more pleasantly surprised by your gesture and most of all that wonderful company that made the evening special. You have just top the list of my favorite moments in my life. Coupled with the humor, I was smiling from ear to ear.
Here are the pictures of me dear cat, puffy with the flowers and shots of the bouquet you gave. That way, I can always preserve its beauty. The cake! well as I exclaimed, "It even has my name on it!" Now who would have thought that would be surprising. But it is true, some people do forget the details..(",)
Now I am officially 31! Thank you my friends for making this easier to go through just because you CARE!
Lots of Love and Tight Hugs,
Carol
