Happy Easter to All and Happy Birthday to ME!

I must admit it feels quite weird having my birthday on Easter Sunday for the first time I can remember but I have had a lovely day so far. We visited my daughter and her boyfriend, Alex, and they treated me to a beautiful vegan lunch. It was delicious!

I was able to see the Butterfly & Lily painting I did for Michelle's birthday hanging on the wall in their bedroom and it matches beautifully with their decor. I'm so glad she is happy with it. Michelle is quite the artist herself and she showed me a beautiful Oriental drawing that she is currently working on. I can't wait to see what she does with it.

Added March 25th - As a matter of interest, I found this link which says that the last time Easter fell on my birthday, March 23rd, was back in 1913! The next time won't be until the year 2160! I don't think I'll be around for that one ~ lol

Anyhoo, I hope you all have a magical Easter ~ (((Hugs)))
