today is my aunt charla’s birthday. i need a separate blog, years long, to really convey the love and importance of charla in my life.
she lived with us when i was young.
back then i’d get scary fevers where i’d believe the coffee table was coming to get me. for some reason i remember charla most when i was sick. she’d sing to me. i’d feel safe.
listening to the song now, i’m a puddle of emotion. back then i just loved how pretty my aunt’s voice sounded. and how she’d weave my name into the song.
no offense mary, but charla’s voice was prettier.
i love you auntie char. happy birthday.
Happy birthday to Charla. Hope it's as special a day as you are to Katie. What wonderful memories, even though you were sick. I wish I had memories such as that. I only have one Aunt & she lives far away. I often wonder why I don't have a mind flooded with sweet memories like that? Sad really. D :
So – bravo to Charla xx
HAPPY BIRTHDAY AUNT CHARLA!
I'd never heard that song before…but what a gift to have someone sing it to you…those words!
You are a lucky and loved lady.

Thank You sweet Katie. You made my day…..actually, you made my life!!
I will always and forever, "walk in the rain by your side".
And the coffee table WAS after you.
