hard to believe this guy popped out of me 14 years ago and made me a motherhe is already taller than I am, living with his dad and getting an education. I am so proud of him!
we are in Warsaw, visiting. Grey skies, fantastic nude trees reaching up, piercing the low clouds.
it is my birthday today, 45. I feel I am carrying many me's inside of me, all glad to be here.

Kronia polla!!
A very happy birthday to you, Manya - and a very good and fulfilled new year of life!
It's a wonderful photo of you and your son - my son is 15, and during the last few months he has turned so pubertal and I'm not allowed to give him an embrace anymore, which is sad - but probably normal ...
It's nice to see you have the same day of birth as my younger sister!
...mine came out 4 months later, remember? and she wears a bigger size shoes than me today...
how is Antonio Ilario, then? enjoying Warsaw?
happy birthday!

Manya, I am a friend of grace and Nandas. Sending birthday wishes to you on this day, the first day after you turned 45. The photo of your arms enfolding your son is so moving, like waves of joy and love, touching, receding, always coming back. Celebrate all of the selves that make yourself.
Χρόνια πολλά! (hrónia pollá) (I hope this says Happy Birthday in Greek)
thank you all so much for your wishes and comments,
I don't know why, but at this moment they are especially meaningful
Happy birthday! You are almost an astrological twin of my husband who was 45 on 19th.
Happy (belated) Birthday! It's interesting that you have some Polish connections. Greetings from Lodz!
Hello. Have just found you (directed here by Jude Hill's recent post). Nice to meet you. I can tell I will enjoy following your blog. Happy belated birthday!
