My dear sister Céline is 30 today! It's hard to believe that the baby who was once so tiny that she needed to wear my doll's clothes (regular baby clothes were too big for her...) is now 30.In the picture above, she's a few months old - we were living in Kenya at the time. The pic on the side was taken a couple of months ago, on the occasion of her wedding.
I have just found out that March 3 is considered a lucky day for a girl to be born in Japan: On the third day of the third month, it is traditional in Japan to celebrate Hina-matsuri, or Girls' Day — a day for wishing all little girls health, growth and happiness, writes Heather in her post about hina-matsuri.
As for Benjy, he just turned 9 yesterday, March 2. He is in great shape of a 9-year-old and just met a new girlfriend at the Venice dog park - a Great Dane (!!!).

SPANGLER - yaaaawn. I'm awake now.
Happy birthday to Celine .. and Benjy. It's good to see you back!
Your sister is lovely and Benjy's new girlfriend proves aht size is all relative! If things don't work out for benjy we can introduce him to my son's minature dacshund Lady Godiva in Brentwood.
Happy birthday to your sister - so gorgeous! Love that baby pic.
And happy birthday to Benjy - boy's got a cute girlfriend!
And welcome back :)
Well, Happy Birthday to your sister! What a fun day to have a birthday. :D
I can't remember if I ever mentioned it..but my dingbat pug met a Great Dane once...his head was bigger than the whole pug...My pug decided it was a good idea to launch an attack. The Great Dane didn't notice anything odd about it, and promptly attached back. Oy. Close one. :p
BELLE DE VILLE - oh, I'd so love to see pics of your dachshund! I hope there are some on your blog...?
MURALIMANOHAR - LOL LOL LOL LOL, what a hilarious story. I think small dogs have absolutely no notion that they are small.
Ohhh You're back! You have been sorely missed.
Happy Birthday to your lovely sister. And to Benjy too! He and his new friend must be quite a sight at the park. So there must be long distance celebrations planned for these couple of days.
So happy to see you ML.
My dog also chooses girlfriends who are much bigger than him, currently a collie named Molly. Molly the Collie hahaha.
Hope your sister had a good birthday!x
Happy Birthday to your beautiful sister and to Benjy. As I recall, nine was a great year!
Welcome back. :)
C'est au Kenya que nous avons passe des jours merveilleux.Le second birthday de Celine fut une fete formidable avec de nombreux amis et, si tu te souviens, un clown qui etait venu specialement divertir une assemblee de gamins; heureux temps!
WELCOME BACK AUREA! Glad your sis' birthday brought you back
Well, Blogger is being weird. I'll try again.
Happy birthday to the lovely Céline & the handsome Benjy.
So impressed with Benjy's obvious firm sense of self--he is not a size-ist. Do we know the name of the lady in question? And, is Taocito jealous? (Not that we want that to be the case.)
ciao-meow to all

Bon anniversaire à la pleine et splendide Céline... par rapport aux petits vêtements de poupée on la mesure plus étoffée et très épanouie!
Charmant tout ça et très attentionné de la grande soeur que l'on est bien content de voir sortir de dessous le drap!
Dans mon jardin il y a beaucoup de roses de noël blanches et pourpres, je vous en envoie à toutes deux sur mon blog! BYE
Felicidades a Céline!
y felicidades al pequeño Casanova...
Un saludo
What a sweet post! :) Hope your sister and Benjy both had happy birthdays!
Nice to see you! Happy Birthday to Celine. She is a beauty, like you and your mom ;-)

Happy Birthday to Celine and Benjy!! Oh Mr. B you look fab for your age and I love how you don't let "distance" come between true love. xo
It is a happy day to see you, Benjy, your sister and your lovely blog.
Happy Birthday to Celine!
And missed you, Mary-Laure. Hope everything is well with you.
Oh, and Happy Birthday to Benjy! How could I forget?
Lol she was such a cute baby!

I wonder what it means if you have a boy on the thrid day in the third month... my 15 year old and Celine share a birthday!
She is lovely in her younger years, she is lovelier in her 30's. Happy birthday!
