10月20日

今回のBirthdayは励まされる日となりました。１本のローソクに感動したり、海の果ても含めてFBや携帯を通してメッセージをいただいたり、自家菜園の愛情たっぷりの野菜をいただいたり、可憐なアレンジのお花が届けられたり、たまたまコーラスの練習日にぴったり遭遇したおかげで、あの歌の大合唱で祝福されて・・・嬉しいやら、恥ずかしいやら・・・年甲斐もなく年を重ねることに感動しました。皆さん、ありがとう。夕食はいただいたお野菜たっぷりの親子丼オンリーというメニューを私オンリーワンで堪能。南京でこれまた３日前に同じ状況だったに違いない夫の気持ちを察しながら。この写真のバラは夫が丹精込めて作った我が家のバラ園から失敬。タイミング良く又咲き誇ってくれました。
This year's my birthday encouraged me a lot thanks to a variety of kind gestures given to me. I was impressed with the only one candle attached to my dessert at the Brasserie aux Amis. Then many messages arrived through fb including some from overseas. Some fresh vegetables and fresh flower arrangement came to me. Furthermore, our choir practice day happened to be on my special day and at the end of the practice, they celebrated me with that song in chorus. I was happy but also embarrassed. Thank you, my dear friends!
I made a special dinner, only one dish though, for myself using much fresh vegetable given to me and enjoyed having it thinking about my husband's feeling on his birthday which he had 3 days ago in Nanking. The red rose in this photo is from his rose garden. It is just in full bloom to please me on my special day.
