AUGUST 28TH, 1972

It was 5:02 am Pacific Standard Time, on this very day back in 1972, Oakland California, when my life changed dramatically and for the better.

On this early August morn, I was introduced to someone very special in my life. This meeting had been planned from the start, with love abounding from me and all of my family.

My special day was now here, after waiting those long nine months, for the arrival of this very special person.

Awaking to the call at 2:00 am, a quick shower and the grabbing of my suitcase, I then departed to our designated place of meeting.

I only had to wait just a few hours, until we finally got the chance to see one another, face to face.....eye to eye.

What a wonderful gift. What a lovely soul. What a precious life. What a sweet angel.

At 5:02 am, that delightful August morning, I gave birth to a beautiful 8lb 8oz, healthy baby girl. She was the prettiest thing I think that I have ever seen. And still is to this day.

I consider myself to be very lucky, to be so blessed with such a wonderful daughter.

Happy birthday, my darling daughter. Your appearance on this day, has made my life complete.

Until we meet again.....Greetings and Salutations from the Moon..............Mommy......Lj
