“I have received therefore I gratefully give”
Nancy Southern on Empowered Soul Blog
I have received so much technical support and attention from IT Girl this year that I am grateful right down to the socks and up to the grey on top. I just must give back and share with you some of her extraordinary talents.
I thought the best way to acknowledge her birthday and all the joy I have surrounding that day – quite awhile ago – would be to share one of her pieces of art. So without further ado or pomp and circumstance here is one of her videos and drawings she completed for a class project. Enjoy.
With loads of hugs and kisses
Wishing you a Very Happy Birthday!
I could not do this blog without IT Girl.
Is there something you are joyously grateful for today? Please share and expand the gratitude.

It Girl is not traveling for another couple of days…but I have this rather massive detailed book to review before she goes and I need to get with it!
We had strawberry shortcake in her honor on her birthday and went on a sail boat right for about 3 hours.
She is very talented

Holy Cow. Class projects sure have changed since I was in school… This is incredible, Patricia. I’m always so in awe of people who can create visual art. I can barely draw a stick figure…
Hugs to you and yours,
Melody

The birthdays of our children are such a wonderful thing. Not only do we remember the highest form of joy (fueled by birth hormones, haha, give me some!) at their arrival into this world, but our pride in the people they’ve become. She has been such a helpmate to you. Wonderful tribute! Hope you both have an exceptional year!

Happiest of Birthdays to IT Girl! I hope it was a fabulous celebration. That was so neat! All the detail right down to the glowing light in the building – just beautiful! She’s so talented. Thank you, IT Girl, for making your Mom’s blog a special place to visit.
They grow too fast, don’t they, Patricia? But what a privilege it is to bear witness.
Hope you and Zip are having a super fine day, Patricia. I just had to pop in and I’m so glad I did!
