		<description>Since I can&#039;t be &quot;late&quot; with you celebrating this way, all I&#039;ll say is &quot;G&#039;on wit ya bad ass self!&quot; 

Next June I&#039;m turning 45, and with 2 of my 4 grandparents having lived past 90, I&#039;m declaring myself &quot;middle-aged&quot; THEN, no matter what auntie says. LOL

You are something else, woman, and I&#039;m SO GLAD I know you! Happy Birthday!!!</description>

		<description>Hmm I don&#039;t think that I have actually went &quot;all out&quot; for my birthday in the past five years or so. Sometimes I just hated to see another number added that I didn&#039;t want to acknowledge it or work and a hectic schedule just kept me from truly celebrating.. Yet, reading your personal story has really put some things into perspective. I certainly will celebrate this coming birthday with a ME DAY. I so hope you enjoyed yourself and continue to the entire year. Here&#039;s wishing you 100 more!</description>

		<description>I&#039;m a little late, as usual, but that won&#039;t stop me from wishing you the ABSOLUTE BEST!
Sounds like your birthday was a Blast. I am Nothing But Happy for you. May you live to see another 50. 
Plus. 
In three short years it will be my turn. How will I celebrate???
Quite a few years ago I planned on taking a trip around the world, sans kids, (all nine of them) all but one of whom will finally be grown by then. 
Now???
I&#039;ll just be Happy to Be Alive.
Cause God is Good where EVER I am, n&#039;est-ce pas?</description>

		<description>hey Yasmin,
I apologize for the belated birthday wishes, looks like you&#039;re celebrating all year so am I really late? lol
I miss you and hope that your 50th year is as grand as a 50th should be. 
I&#039;ll be 25 in a few days and I want you to know that I&#039;ve incorporated things I admire about you into the blueprint for my future. You are amazing and inspirational. The honorary mother I am proud to have. I&#039;m starting to tear up...I mean every word.
I love you!</description>
