You are all very sweet! Thank you Dawn, Noreen and Karen!Thank you for your wonderful birthday wishes and kind compliment! I had a wonderful birthday weekend, not too hectic, just right! :o)My secret for looking young (besides being still so young! ;o) ha ha ha!!!!!) is oily skin, good skin care, a portrait in the attic (for those Dorian Gray horror fans! ;o)) and incredibly good genes. If you think *I* look young, you should see my parents!Here's a funny story: When I was applying for a loan years back, and it was my first loan, I knew that I'd need a co-signer. I was still in college and living at home, so my father agreed to co-sign if necessary.When we applied for the loan, the loan officer asked us how long we'd been married for, looking like such a young couple and all! I was so shocked!!! The loan officer could still hardly believe it after we explained politely that I was the daughter. My father had the biggest laugh out of that one when we left!Again, thank you so much for your sweet birthday wishes! Have a great day!Hugs!Valentine :o)
