Happy Birthday Anna!

How true it is that the notes we make about tomorrow percolate in our sleeping brains all night long, like seeds in the ground, only to sprout fresh and green in the morning. When I used to teach older GED students, one of my most-oft-repeated lines was that our brains were built to work on their own, and would serve us well, if we give them the time to do so.

Glad for your post and for How to Glow in the Dark. One little candle ...
