Yes, it's my birthday and I am not shy about it. My close friends know I love to celebrate another year's passing and if it means stretching out the birthday visits over weeks, that's all good.
Regular visitors to Life at Busy Solitude Farm know I try to celebrate here, too. Just last year every member of the BSF gang was featured. And in 2010, Oskar and Ulani brought me a special present. 2009 had a revealing post! I guess in 2008 I wasn't yet really mentioning myself much in my posts, but I always liked this post, so let's call it my 2008 birthday post!
Of course birthdays do bring some reflection, and I think all of you know that so many of the BSF friends seen in these past posts are no longer with us. So a moment of reflection on their happy lives here, and how much they meant to me.

And now, the 2012 celebrating gets under way! I hope that each and every reader will take a moment today to think about all of the great things we have in our lives -- friends, health, laughter. Do that, and it will the best gift I could imagine.
