Happy Birthday Noelle

Happy happy Birthday Noellie! You have been an important part of my life since you were born: keeping us good company in the hospital when Mike was sick--the one person we could count on to be happy, being the needed contrast in a family of crazy boys, having a great sense of humor and letting it come through your writing (you have no idea how much I appreciated that!), continuing to give us something to brag about as a family (no pressure). . .we are glad you were born and love you very much. Hope you have some fun today (along with all the work). Love, Pammy

Noelle! I love you so much too! I always love talking to you. You are always intellegent, interested, supportive, sympathetic, sincere, and hilarious. Plus, you are a total babe! I have had more than one of my friends look at my pictures on my computer and ask "who's that hottie?" That's my cousin! Sorry about all the exclamation points, I just really can't say enough how I really do love you. Thank you for being so supportive with all the wedding stuff and being a beautiful bridesmaid. I hope you have a great day today. I still want to video chat sometime. Happy Happy Birthday!

Noelle is my Nan! I remember asking mom who her best friend was, "outside of dad, of course," and, of course, it was Nan. Besides all you do to keep our family organized and functional (and which is sorely missed when you are gone!)you are a great confident (I aspire to be so trustworthy) and give balanced and objective advice. You have Mimi's memory, grandpa's integrity, dad's sense of humor, Pammy's discipline, your own striking beauty. You are my pride and joy. I love you dearly!

Happy Birthday Noellie! You are like a sister to me. Remember when me and you and Sienna had matching nightgowns for Christmas? Whenever I needed a good laugh I knew I could count on you and Austin. You guys are the most hilarious duo. You are super smart and really good at everything you do. I wish that I was as well spoken and knowledgeable as you are. Also, you have the most beautiful thick and healthy hair in the coolest color. You are also an awesome babysitter. I love you.

Happy Birthday, Noelle! You're 19 and are in such a great place in your life. I'm so proud of you, really, for all your accomplishments (and I only know of about a third of them)! I know we don't keep in touch really, but I always ask Pam and your mom how you're doing. Hope you have a great birthday and many wonderful things to come this year for you. -Robin

(tu mamá me está matando) solo para que sepas cuánto aguanto en esta casa! un poeta dijo una vez:ah!! no me acuerdo que dijo!

THANK YOU ALL for making me feel so loved! =) Reading all your kind messages made my day... which also consisted of going out to eat dinner with two friends and receiving a lovely birthday package from my mom and dad.

I love you guys so much and I miss you tremendously! I can't wait to see you.

Dear Noelle: These birthday messages are so touchingly true. I missed yesterday, so I will wish you a happy first day of your 20th year! Or something like that. I knew the virtual circle was coming and I was thinking about you and what might be said. I was thinking about you being at the hospital with Mike. I can picture the matching nightgowns. I have happy memories of our performance of the richardy scarry counting song:) Also, you may not remember going with me to a 12 step meeting when I wanted company. What a sport. Not to mention 101 dalmations atleast twice. You are fun and smart and an achiever who is healthy, I think. I am honored to be featured with you in your photos from break. Happy Happy Birthday from one you loves and ADMIRES you.

p.s. I bumped into Bill Patterson at D.I. the other day and he asked about you. He loves that you are at Stanford.
