ReplyDeleteIf you are half as great as I think your mom is, then you must be perfect. I hope you have the Grandest time in Europe, and please send us pictures if you can. Also..one of my friends recently become a grandmother for the first time, and her dgd was named Keira too. I thought that was wonderful.

My goodness Keira!!! What do mean you are turning 21??? How can this be??? What happened to the gorgeous little girls that we took driving round to see the Xmas lights one year..... do you remember??? We had the 2 door little green car and someone went to point at some pretty lights and there was a frog crawling up the INSIDE of the window!!! I can laugh about it now but at the time the scene must've looked like 50 centapedes trying to escape from a matchbox!!! Luckily your Dad saved the day (very bravely, I might add, cos he's admitted that he didn't like frogs either) and I just bailed out with you 4 kids and left him to deal with it.(getting rid of the frog, I mean).
ReplyDeleteAnyway Keira, have a fantastic birthday and good fun in Europe!! Did you know Alison's been in UK for 7 months now?? She's in Ireland just now and looking at going to Turkey in April, will send this message onto her and I'm sure she'll want to keep in touch. Where abouts will you go to first??
Hope this finds you happy and healthy, love Marion xoxox
Happy 21st. Birthday, Keira. You are such a beautiful young woman with a real adventure planned. Enjoy every moment of it. Take in the sights, scents and sounds of all the new people and places you will see. Keep those memories deep within you so you can tell your grandchildren about them. You are so special and so loved. A wonderful lifetime awaits you. Enjoy the ride.

Hello Keira
ReplyDeleteYour mum tells me it’s your 21st birthday – congratulations! I met your mum many years ago when we joined the Baby Sitting Co-Op at Chipping Norton. I looked after you and your sister Emma on a few occasions. You were probably only about 7 or 8 years old at the time and may not remember me! It was always a pleasure to come and mind you both as you were beautiful, well-mannered girls and a delight to take care of. One night you were telling me about going to Hawaii to be flower-girls at your aunt’s wedding.
I hope you have a wonderful time in Europe – it’s a big, beautiful world out there and it’s fantastic that you have the opportunity to travel before settling down to marriage and kids of your own! Again, Happy Birthday, with love and best wishes from

Hey Bridget, great to hear that Kiera is coming over to Europe, its a great way to learn and discover all kinds of new things. i cant believe she's nearly 21 aswell!! that means its nearly my turn ..scary. i remember the times you would come to visit or we'd visit you and we'd all be dancing around to that song 'aga-doo'! and having a blast. anyway i wish her all the best for her 21st, and for the Europe trip!! it'd be great to catch up over here if she has a chance. lots of love to you all!! xoxoxo Alison Gosling
ReplyDeleteHappy 21st Birthday
ReplyDelete“KEIRA”
Its funny how time flies when you hardly notice how big and how quickly the little nieces and nephews grow until you actually get a reminder of the upcoming birthdays.
It makes us older generation feel like it is our time to start looking for our new companion who will be with us for the remainder of our lives…. “ A Walking Stick ” (I can just imagine what your grand aunties and grand uncles will moan to themselves after reading this statement…hahaha….)
Anyway,you have grown into what seem to me as a well organised, mature and decisive adult.(I bet you got that from your mum’s side…no offence Mark… just a joke.)
I hear that you are going on your OE soon, good luck and be safe and hope it is a good and joyful experience for you. Just remember that if you need another destination for part of your OE, you can always come here to Melbourne as it is another state so it qualifies as overseas .. hehehehehe….but seriously, its been nice to have you over for the holidays and we are looking forward to having you over again.
Once again, Happy Birthday and take care.
Lots of love from Taine, Timara, Daydrian and Ian.
Hey Keira!
ReplyDeleteHappy 21st Birthday! Have a blast in Europe, and remember that it's the journey that counts, not the destination. This is when you can have the best and most memorable times. Enjoy!

Dear Keira,
ReplyDeleteJust want to wish you all the luck in the world as you endeavour off to the cold and rainy UK. You know when it comes down to it, you're the friend that I've known the longest. Some of my earliest memories of us are of sleepovers at your place in Burwood, playing Berenstein Bears jigsaw puzzles on the computer, your mum taking us to Australia's Wonderland and we had a fight over something (can't remember what) and that infamous bubble bath photo is going to haunt me for the rest of my life!!! Anyways babe, take care over there, it'll be a great experience for you. And you better post you're photos up on facebook too!!! We'll be waiting for your return with a lunch date at yum cha and maybe we'll finally be able to make it to Minus 5 too!!!
Love always Lana Clarke

To Everyone who has posted a comment on Mum's blog...THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH!!
ReplyDeleteWhen Mum told me she had something for me on her "blogspot" that i had to check today (my bday) i had to ask her about 3 times what she was talking about..i thought i was "hip" with the internet but obviously not..i didnt know what a blogspot was until right now so it was a very special surprise for me to wake up this morning and find all these birthday wishes posted up here for me! and theres so many of them!
So thanks to everyone for making the morning of my 21st bday something sweet!
Thanks to all who took a few minutes out of their time to remind me of how i have to deal with turning 21 even when Im not ready yet!!
Im still trying to catch up to my 16th birthday and get reminded of it all the time from Emma who constantly tells me to "grow up"! Really she should be turning 21 and me turning 16 this year..
Thanks to all the comments that had a little memory in there!
Marion-the frog in the car!!
Lana-the fight at wonderland hahaha i dont have any idea what it was over either.
Uncle Charlie & Aunty Irene-1995?? i was 8 when I saw you last! I probably only LOOK older :P
Darrell-cant believe its been 3 years since we spoke..you must be getting old haha jks..will be excellent to come visit you soon!
And to my MUM!! *tear*
You definately have alot of internet buddies and its sweet of them to wish me a happy bday.
Your very creative with what you do and it just shows how well I've taught you *sniggers*
This page took me about 40 minutes to read through and it was probably the best thing for me to do on my bday :D
Woke up thinking I'll be home all day on my own..on my bday then I start work when everyones coming home..nice birthday huh!
But reading all these wishes really has made my day already!
So Mum thanks for putting this all together and getting everyone to write a little something up, the slideshow was pretty neat too. I havent seen some of those photos before!
Thank you again Mum and everyone else who took part in these "fruit salad" comments!
I really enjoyed reading every single one of them and have to say i WILL have a special day now thanks to you all :)
Be sure to still keep in touch..
Love always
Keira oxoxo
P.S Ill hopefully be posting photos on my facebook from my OS trip so if you want, you can find me on there.
You are very welcome Keira, made me cry reading what you wrote LOL, well give yourself a big hug now that you are a big girl hee hee.
ReplyDeleteGlad we could make your day bright.

Hey Keira, you made it to your 21st no problems. Now you're legal in the US too! I still remember you when you were just a baby! (You'll probably say the same things to my kids when they get older)Its kinda weird to think that you'll get married in the not too distant future and have kids of your own. Enjoy being unwed as loooonggg as you can. Happy belated birthday.
