Remember its a few weeks away until her birthday. Not quite there yet! And yes, a philosophy book would be ideal; may I suggest one on quantum theory?

Quantum philosophy sounds about right.

Oh I'm sure she'd romp through that! I wondered, couldn't someone think of something a little more, might one say, mind-broadening?Borek said:

Thank you everyone for your birthday thanks! It looks like it's going to be a beautiful day and my new flowers aren't due to arrive until tomorrow, I hope they arrive without being ripped to shreds.
Today I plan to work on my vegetable garden, I grew everything from seed.
