Happy 42nd Claudia!!!

I posted this for Missy Claudia's birthday last year, but added another feature to it for this year.


She has beautiful, expressive eyes.
She loves traveling, especially to Europe.
She loves white linen clothes.


Her cute boys are always dressed alike.
She loves to hang out and chat for hours.
She LOVES to shop and can always find many bargains.
She is super generous with her time, talents and money.


She and Alfredo are a great couple, even during rough patches.
She keeps in touch with people all over the world.
She LOVES her family and serves them well.
She is a dutiful daughter.


She loves the beach.
She speaks 4 languages!
She has no inhibitions at all.
She tries to haggle over prices at Nordstroms! (I almost died the first time I saw her do this over a pair of huge earrings.)


She loves paper and stationery as much (or more) than even I do! (This is a very endearing quality.)
She loves to go to the movies and talks a lot during them.


She loves beautiful magazines.
She has a gorgeous home, but would rather be out and about. (I don't understand this at all.)


She's an excellent hostess and has cozy bedding and luxurious towels.
She considered naming her first son D'Artagnan.
She wants to have a room full of pillows in her future mansion.



She loves wearing navy blue and white. (Whenever I see clothes with these colors together I ALWAYS think of her.)


She looks like an heiress when she's all made up and ready to go out.
She goes to Disneyland once a week just to walk around.
She is incredibly easygoing.


She's a great cook.
She has a natural talent for making her home beautiful, yet comfortable.
She knows how to clean exceptionally well.


She loves to drive, and drives fast and crazy (she's often on the phone, eating and doing her nails at the same time.)
She loves living in California.
We call each other Missy (as in Missy Jill, Missy Claudia, the reason why is too long to tell).


She's a patient and loving mother.
She loves to wander Barnes & Noble, especially the magazine section.
She loves high fashion and anything expensive (how are we friends again?)
She often uses the word "tasty".


She loves Paper Source as much as I do.
She is a great friend!
When she wrote her list of 100 things about herself she ended up with 190 things!
She had a really rough 40th year but will have a great 41st!


She had an even rougher 41st, but hopefully will have a better 42nd year!


She loves sending and receiving cards and letters and considers them a gift. (She has sent me cards with hardly any writing in them just because she thought the card was so pretty.)

Happy Birthday Missy,
I hope you have a wonderful day!
