Not only is it my birthday, it's fellow writer and friend Jody Hedlund's! We couldn't let the excitement of a twofer pass without celebration. And we want you to join us for a virtual birthday party!
You're invited to the comments section of this post, where cakes and decorations and excitement await. Bring your signature party recipes, silly games and special entertainment. Let's have fun!
If you don't know Jody, please visit her blog. She recently signed a three-book deal with Bethany House, which means you can both congratulate her and wish her a happy birthday. You'll enjoy her posts while you're there, too, for she's humble and forthright with her journey to publication.
Happy Birthday, Jody! And Happy Birthday, me! [This just in: It's Jenna's birthday, too! Three writers! Three Js! I never knew November 3rd could be so much fun.]

Just wandered over from Jody's blog to wish you a Happy Birthday. Birthdays are wonderful opportunities to celebrate the life God has given each of us and it's lovely when friends share their special day.
ReplyDeleteVirtual parties are such fun! I haven't been to one since Rachelle's back in mid June. So, where's the coffee pot? I intended to bring some brownies along but my DH ate the whole pan! 'Fraid you'll have to settle for some Tim Horton's cinnamon buns that I picked up on the way here.
Happy birthday to Jenna too! I wish I could be there with you to celebrate. :)
ReplyDeleteYay! Happy Birthday to both of you. What fun!
ReplyDeleteHAPPY BIRTHDAY!!! I hope it's a great one.
ReplyDeleteThanks, everyone for coming to the party! And I'm so excited to see new faces, too. Stay as long as you like. There's plenty of cake! :)
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday! My daughter's birthday is next Tuesday.
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday, Girls! And many happy returns of this day!
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday to all of you!!!!!! I want a piece of that cake!
ReplyDeleteI want some cake!!!
ReplyDeleteHappy, happy, happy, happy, birthday to you!!! Can you tell that I hope you have a great day???
Love the cake. The thing about virtual cake is that is contains no calories.
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday to you all! I'll save my piece of the cake for my birthday tomorrow. It's nice to know I'm in such great November company.
