Happy Birthday, Fang! Happy baby’s-birthday, **Shirley Ujest**! Do you plan on calling her your baby when she has grandkids, or will it just happen by itself with no planning aforethought? I’m curious because my mother used to laugh at her neighbor who did it… until I pointed out she does it too (well, ok, so Mom doesn’t have great-grandkids yet, but me and the bros are all over 30). ---

Happy Birthday Fang! I know what you mean about the time–my son’s 10th birthday was two days ago, and I was wondering the same thing. How did he get to be 10 years old overnight? (Just think, in three years–about the time it takes us to blink–they’ll be teenagers!) ---

My baby turned 20 (6 months ago, but still…) and I feel the same way as when he turned 10 and the way y’all do. I blinked and he grew up, I blinked again and was a grown man. It is so bittersweet and still makes me cry. Happy birthday, Fang and congrats Fang-parents. ---

Happy Birthday Fang! And hang in there **Shirley**. Time may fly, but she’ll always be your baby. ---

Awwww…so sweet! Happy birthday, kiddo! My “baby” turned 13 this year which is surreal since our newest one is 18 months old. ---

Aw, 10 is a great age! These are the fun, busy, learning years, hope you all enjoy them! (My baby is 22 and will always and forever be my baby.) ---

“Turn around and you’re two. Turn around and you’re four. Turn around and you’re a young girl going out of the door.” Happy Birthday, Fang! ---

On Eldest’s 10th birthday I kept thinking about something my mother said to me: “The days are long but the years are short”. It’s really true. Happy Birthday, Fang!! ---

Fang and I share a birthday. Happy birthday, Fang! The last 10 years have really gone by faster than decades usually do. ---
