Happy birthday, Dear Shannon! You are a true gem of YLF community.

Happy Birthday, Shannon! I hope you have a wonderful day.

Happy Birthday Shannon, we are twins. Same day, same year.

Oh Shannon, Happy birthday! Are you crying yet? I am. After reading Angie's post (and nodding all the way) and the comments, I can barely see to type. I hope you realize how special and loved you are. You are so genuine, honest and so much fun and your style is totally inspiring. It is such a joy to have you as a companion traveler on the road to discovering our style. Have a wonderful birthday!

Happy Birthday to a very special lady! 50 has never looked so good.:) xx

*happy tears*

Oh my goodness - I'm positively speechless and more than a little verklempt (any SNL Coffee Talk fans here?) at your heartwarming comments. I'm truly blessed to be part of this community. Finding YLF and all of you has been such an incredibly positive thing in my life.

Angie - thank you soooooo much for your sweet words Although I had to chuckle when reading of my ever-changing mind regarding my style choices - I do sound pretty indecisive don't I? - lol!

This thread is being marked as a favourite for me so if I'm having one of those days where I'm feeling down, I can go back and read it and it will lift me up.

Love you all
xoxo

Shannon, it is your warm and loving nature that makes you flip flop - and it is your genius to share your thought process, or rather, your FEELING process here with us, because it mirrors what so many of us feel inside but dare not articulate. You are such a pal!!!

Shannon, what an amazing year this will be for you. I'm continually inspired by your enthusiasm, your optimism, your great style and your willingness to take creative risks. May fifty be beyond fabulous for you. Happy Birthday!

There is just no end to your fabulous style, Shannon. I enjoy and learn so much from your amazing WIW's. Wishing you the best birthday ever, and welcome to the 50+ club!

Hope you are walking on clouds, birthday girl!

My dear Shannon, where do I even begin ?

You bring a smile to my face when I just see that you have posted. I love everything about you : everything . I even admire your relationship with your DH, DS, and MIL. I don't remember the forum before you.

Happy birthday ! And thank you for sharing "you" with us. You are the gift and I am soooooo grateful. Thank you Universe , for this day , the day you brought us Shannon.

Happy Birthday (again ;>)Shannon! I remember when I first started on YLF and how your style combinations really impressed me. Kept me coming back for more I should go re-read all your posts so I don't forget what you've taught me!
