Happy Birthday, J aime coudre

My sister's 70th birthday is October 15th and her 6th anniversary being on allpoetry is coming up .  She's J aime coudre on allpoetry, a wonderful poet and story writer. She has never had a contest done in her honor so to help her celebrate I want to do this contest for her. I've had a few contests especially for me so I know how special it makes a person feel. I want her to experience those special feelings.

If you are familiar with her work you'll recognise her talent and if you're not familiar, you can check her out at

www.allpoetry.com/j%20aime%20coudre%20

There's not much in the way of rules and she likes reading a lot of different things so make your entry funny, serious or anything in between.

I'm trying to surprise her with this contest but I might ask her to help judge it when the time comes.

We're here visiting her in Florida and it'll be fun surprising her at the end.

Rules:
1. One entry per person

2. New writes are prefered but you may enter a prewrite only if it fits as being special for her.

3. No hardcore adult entries but something whimsical, humorous would be okay.

4. No CAPLOCKS or ThiS kINd oF sTuFf

So... put on your thinking caps and help me to make her birthday and allpoetry anniversary special.

    Dear Darlene and Dee,

    You two are a couple of tricks!! Thankyou for the SILVER award which you stubbornly awarded in spite of my marking it clearly as a NON-ENTRY. Is nothing sacred? LOL. You are sweet!!
    I shall give the points to a needy destitute.
    I'm sure you had a whale of a birthday and hope that Bob has recovered from it.
    Love and hugs, XXX Hugh.

      I tried to convince her that you don't do this kind of thing to be judged but she's the obstinate one in the family and she was doing the judging.

      So... congratulations on the Silver
