[Oe List ...] We are getting older- what fun

[Beret Griffith]

What fun! Loved  your note Joan.
How about we each send a note to the listserve on our birthday.
Could even do a short message. Our family still uses the birthday questions
after all these years.
Name
Date of Birth
Signal Event of the Year
Anticipation/Promise Claiming for Coming Year

I  appreciate "hearing" our voices on the listserve.
Beret
