Only One You

Short post today because my stomach has taken a turn and I’m not feeling all that well. Might I add that taking a bath is not all it used to be? Toddler standing over me chucking toys onto my legs and belly, flinging washcloths my way and eventually stripping out of her Pull-Up in hopes to join me…Makes me miss days when taking a bath wasn’t quite such an action sport.

Anyway, today I’ll write a bit about you--the uniqueness of you. There will never ever be another that has that exact tint in their eyes, the mole right where yours is located, that silly grin, the twittering laugh, the robust voice, the tender touch, the boing of curl in their hair or confident step. There will never be anyone who knows just the right thing to say, writes notes with that special signature, or who sneezes every time it rains…you know all those little things that add up to you. They are part of your makeup--part of your existence here on earth.

For those of you who were born today, Happiest of Birthdays to you. And remember, your fingerprint is yours alone and there will never ever be another you. Oh, Happy You!
