Around 2 pm I was just finishing typing up the blog entry about today being Erin’s birthday when the door bell rang. There stood a young man from Land Park Florist delivering a beautiful bouquet of flowers. The note attached said:“Dear Barb & Clark,
We’re thinking of you and ERIN today. Happy Birthday to ERIN! We love her and miss her.
Cindy, Shannon, Anissa, Vivian & Aletha” 
Then as I was beginning to write this blog at about 5 pm, the doorbell rang again. This time it was Shannon bearing a 2 lb box of See’s Chocolates! I love the attached card of the Eiffel Tower. Her card said,
“Barbara,
“My thoughts are with you today. I am trying to focus on my happy memories from past birthdays – eating taco salad with your family, our famous kareoke party, dinner with the chicks.
“I hope that you’re doing okay. I know Erin would have wanted you & Clark to have some chocolate today.
Love,
Shannon”
What a wonderful, wonderful friend Erin had!
Barbara
