Dear Mara,
Happy Birthday!
Isn't it something that you're older today than yesterday but younger than tomorrow?
40 is a great age. Enjoy the cake and all the nice surprises your birthday brings.
Cheers to another year of life experience and writing.

And yes, I did say 'buffday' because knowing you, it won't take long to get to that stage after a couple of Mai Tais. Huzzah! Enjoy your day, my friend!
And don't forget to fax me the cake!

A beautiful looking birthday for a truly beautiful person! I hope you have the best birthday possible. Remember, the only day wasted is the one that you don't take advantage of, so live each day to the fullest.

Happy birthday, Mara! Forty sure doesn't feel old anymore, does it? Remember when we were 20 and 40 seemed like...oh, God, your parents' age
Funny how time and perspective changes everything. I hope the outlook on the 18th is perfect for your birthday -- have a great one!
