Happy Birthday, Anna!

Dear Hearts,

Anna, left, with her friend at Easter.

October 23rd is the birthday of Anna Margaret Herrington: daughter of Ella and Phillip Herrington; sister to Dee Dee, Joseph, John, Ruth, James, Agnes and Rose; granddaughter of Bob and Darlene and Eddie and Sylvia; cousin, niece and friend to dozens more lucky people. Her name brings thoughts of two wonderful and important people in our family--Aunt Margaret and Aunt Anna Rita, aka The Aunties.

Anna is Aunt Darlene's 43rd grandchild! Since the day she was born, Anna has graced the world with her sweet face and sparkling eyes, often accompanied by a happy smile. I'm sure she is cruising through third grade with good grades and wonderful behavior.

Happy birthday, sweet girl. May you have 116 more healthy ones, by the Aunt Joannie Sullivan Law of Longevity Aspiration of 2008.

God bless us and save us and keep us from harm.

Love,
Patty
