Happy Birthday, Lori

Today is my sweet friend, Lori's, birthday. I have known Lori for over 20 years and I want to say just a few things about her that describe her:
She is funny, beautiful, kind, immensely talented (as you all know), caring (she would sit for hours and listen to my problems) extremely talented, (did I already say that??---it bears repeating), sweet, strong, faithful, creative, warm, giving, thoughtful, generous, discerning, has your back, truthful, loyal, brave.....and wonderful. And this just scratches the surface of wonderful words that describe Lori. I am so thankful that she is my friend.
Have a wonderful day, Lori. I love you!
