Your children need your presence more than your presents.

I do like to shock and surprise people. When it's all in good fun, of course.

If you can give your child only one gift, let it be enthusiasm.

I think, at a child's birth, if a mother could ask a fairy godmother to endow it with the most useful gift, that gift should be curiosity.

You know you're getting old when the candles cost more than the cake.

Like many women my age, I am 28 years old.

It is lovely, when I forget all birthdays, including my own, to find that somebody remembers me.

My father gave me the greatest gift anyone could give another person, he believed in me.

Every year on your birthday, you get a chance to start new.

I wanted to buy a candle holder, but the store didn't have one. So I got a cake.
