58 years ago today...

The HD3QEM tells me she was so proud of herself and of me when I (the first Stedman girl child for two generations) arrived 58 years ago.   Hopefully she is still proud now!
This afternoon she took me out for a birthday cake - an Almond Bundt Cake - which was utterly delicious but will equal many kilometres on the treadmill! 

And among the gifts there was a pair of Swarovski Crystal Earrings.   Very nice.   I think I will repeat this next year.
Tonight is dedicated to finishes.   First the back of Shelley's Jewellery Box (which will then be put away temporarily while I work on other things) and second, Kelly's Growth Chart.   Kelly is walking and talking (sort of) and will soon be one so I need to put in the necessary spurt to get this finished.
