Happy 39th Birthday, Darling
Dear Cha, we recalled when you were born today - it was Cup Match Sunday just before 4 pm in the afternoon. You popped out with hardly any fuss. The night before, we had had dinner with the doctor who delivered you and he told mom "I could tell you were in labour last evening!".
You sure were a happy baby and you gave us huge happiness. As you grew older, birthdays began to be an event of national significance - everyone knew when it was Cha's birthday...three months in advance!
Anyway, it's a shame you weren't here this weekend. Cup Match was as much fun as it ever was. Talley's parents had a superb party to introduce her fiancé, Paul, last night. Everyone missed you. Today was a beautiful day (probably laid on by you) and we celebrated your birthday, all the time thinking of you. It would be great if you came home.
Love, Mom and Dad.
