Happy Birthday Sirena from Mike, Jane, Ben, Jake, Jess and Heather and all your Canadian family. Hope you have a great one in Ensenada. It does seem
just like yesterday when you were just a little girl, OH, Ben says you still are, but thats just him. All of us send our love.
Jake and Jess are in Peru right now climbing Mount Machu Picchu. Check their facebook site to see how they are doing.

Happy birthday Sirena!!!!!

Sirena. First, I want to mention that as a cranky old gringo, from observation, I really think that you have the ability to make major changes in the
world. Just my perspective. You have been blessed with a multi-cultural backgound that serves to make you all that much stronger and wiser. You really
do have the world in your hand. Here's hoping that you can do something with that. Sadly, not that many people have the background and opportunity
that you have. Here's hoping that you make a difference. I think you will. Feliz Cumpleanos y vaya con Dios.

pool, boy, did she get yours! Happy Birthday to both of you. Afterall, Shari, you were there, too!

More birthday wishes coming from Canada, Have a great one, Sirena.
And Shari, Happy Birthing Day to you. Hi!! to Juan.
Leaving Monday for Baja, but I'm afraid I can't stop into Ascuncion to say HI!! this year as I have several portable sewing machines that I'm hauling
down, and I'm afraid that road in to your place might not be kind to them. Sure would be nice to see you guys again though....Barb

Felicidades Seņorita Sirenita.
SiReNiTa - 10-25-2009 at 08:47 AM
Sheesh cant a girl wake up and check a forum without getting all teary eyeD??? NO fair 
Thank you all for the birthday wishes so much my heart goes out to all of you with a big warm hug and mamma well i dont have to say how lucky i am to
have you as my guide, mentor and friend through these 20 and seemingly very short years lol.
I woke up this morning thinking...Thank God for another year...there are so many people that can not say that for a 20th time so I am greatful and
very very happy to be celebrating with people i love.
Last nights birthday bash was a great success, Adrian my boyfriend organized a huge party at his house and to my surprise brought his brothers rock
band to play for me, although he did not sing as i hoped they were amazing and we all had tons of fun, im lacking pictures and videos because the darn
bateries i got for my camara didnt work (go figure right) but the memoirs of the night will last in my mind for years and years to come 
Still more surprises to come today but for now i was the only early bird since my
phone started ringing off the hook since like 5 am....aaanyway...thanks so much again for the bday wishes and...i would like to share a song that i
very much identify with (or at least the lyrics) i hope you enjoy.
If Everyone Cared-Nickleback
From underneath the trees, we watch the sky
Confusing stars for satellites
I never dreamed that you'd be mine
But here we are, we're here tonight
Singing Amen, I, I'm alive
Singing Amen, I, I'm alive
[Chorus:]
If everyone cared and nobody cried
If everyone loved and nobody lied
If everyone shared and swallowed their pride
Then we'd see the day when nobody died
And I'm singing Amen
Amen I, Amen I, I'm alive
Amen I, Amen I, Amen I, I'm alive
And in the air the fireflies
Our only light in paradise
We'll show the world they were wrong
And teach them all to sing along
Singing Amen, I, I'm alive
Singing Amen, I, I'm alive
(I'm alive)
[Chorus x2]
And as we lie beneath the stars
We realize how small we are
If they could love like you and me
Imagine what the world could be
If everyone cared and nobody cried
If everyone loved and nobody lied
If everyone shared and swallowed their pride
Then we'd see the day when nobody died
When nobody died...
[Chorus]
We'd see the day, we'd see the day
When nobody died
We'd see the day, we'd see the day
When nobody died
We'd see the day when nobody died
