So if Death does snatch you... from the life that you've led, at least rest assured you've... brought sunshine before being dead. I hope you last till this 26th of September, so that one more time you can eat cake. And have no doubt that {you} I won't remember! ** [ I'll call the bakery now, 'cause Bri doesn't bake. ] bri :) Happy Birthday! Don't forget to wear your suit on September 26. *In case the grammar here leaves any doubt: i won't forget you.............until i DO.
