32 years of being ME.


Today on my birthday Creed had a Dr.'s Appointment
and as luck would have it this was the only children's
book in the joint. When we got to this page
 it just sang to me. So for my birthday
I gave myself this wonderful reminder;

Today you are you! That is truer than true!
There is no one alive who is you-er than you!
Shout loud. "I am lucky to be what I am!
Thank goodness I'm not just a clam or a ham
Or a dusty old jar of sour gooseberry jam!
I am what I am! That's a great thing to be!
If I say so myself, Happy Birthday to me!!

Well said Dr. Seuss, well said!
