I was sent a PM yesterday asking why we acknowledge birthdays of Cuties who perhaps have not been on the site for some months. It is a very good question. Perhaps these people still come to the site just to have a look, perhaps they are ill, perhaps..... I do hope they come when it is their birthday just to see if they are still remembered. I would like to take this opportunity to thank a handful of Cuties who every day send birthday wishes to our birthday Cuties. Thank you.

Sarah I so much appreciate what you are doing. I can not even imagine you having to check every day what cutie is a active one or still around. You are right. Maybe they will see it and feel joy that someone cared.
And now I have to admit that often I do not have the time to acknowledge birthdays so I just give you a flower and ignore it being afraid I may hurt someones feelings. I will try to do better in the future.

I want you to know that I appreciate my birthday wish on my day. I am sure that the others do also. I am working full time and am75 years old. I have very little time to spend on the computer. I do enjoy all the comments when I have the time. Thank you for all you do.

Ruthie, I am glad you are still here when you can be.
Sadly, Ruthie is not alone in needing to work past the retirement age.

Every now and then, when I read a comment left by a "new" Cutie with few flowers, I click their name to know more about them and discover that they have been a Cutie for much longer than I have been. So, I presume that they are still around, just don't have much time to participate more to the forum. Thank you Sarah!

Lots of perhaps and just maybe someone will realize we do care about them and remember them and they remember what they are missing and come back

I think it is a good question to ask, but I admit I like wishing Cuties a happy birthday and I like being wished happy birthday on my day. I know there are many cuties who don't post for whatever the reason. They are still welcome in my heart. I am so grateful for every cutie who has taken on the task of birthday announcements. I know it takes hours each month to do this and few of us have said thank you to them.

I have often wondered why so I go into birthday posts after the day, and I have seen a few folk who come to pick up their wishes. I appreciate your efforts, and your consistency. I do enjoy my birthday post and I hope everyone signs it this year. Like others it is the one card I am sure to get every year. Yeah!

WE won't forget you Christine.

I have to admit that me too sometimes wonder if everybody is still here, but then I realize that lots of things can happen in ones live. It does not mean that if we don't see them really here, that they are not around. And anyway nice wishes, nice vibres are sent to that person, so I guess they will arrive at the person somehow.. But I do like to see a thank you from the person involved.

I have noticed some Cuties will make a new post -- often in another section of the site saying thanks for the birthday wishes. More people would see it if they left a thank you comment inside the birthday post -- but I just hope they all know they are loved
I have also noticed this.

I know some Cuties who were here for years and I do mean years that never made one comment, but read and kept up with what was going on here.
I would be so dismayed if my birthday was not mentioned by anyone, anywhere and I certainly would never want that feeling to be felt by one of my precious Cuties, here.
I appreciate you, Sarah and Linda, for doing this mostly thankless job with such enthusiasm and ingenuity. I love you girls!

I'm with jrob...I think there are Cuties out there who come and take a peek but don't post...for whatever their reasons are...but, I know they enjoy reading about goings on here...and thank you from the bottom of my heart for all that you do...it is quite a task to keep up with the Birthday posts and others...kudos to you, Sarah!

Many Cuties went back to work or they have family that needs most of their time. They may only come long enough to read, give flowers and hope that they are not forgotten. Some have simply chosen to be one of the quiet Cuties...and that's OK too. Although they stay in the shadows, regardless of the reasons, they still have a place here and deserve to be a part of the group.
I am thankful each day for Linda and Sarah as I know they brighten the day for many Cuties.

Thank you all for the good wishes, birthday wishes, prayers. They mean a lot to me and I know to others also. We don't always know what someone is going through in their lives, but the forum gives us a bright spot in our day. I truly would miss the comments and interaction between Cuties.
Thank you.
Thank you.

Some of us come here and do not post too many comments. Maybe they are lurking right now.

I haven't been on here as long as some that you miss and would like to hear from. But I hope and pray they are as well as they can be in their personal situation. 'Happy birthday' is such a simple phrase and who knows it might just brighten some ones day, being the only joy they received. I don't know any of the ladies or gents but if I'm able I'll wish them a 'Happy Birthday'; it's the least I can do for the kindness I've been shown here. Both of you ladies keep up the good work. Thank you. :-)

It takes so little time to send a flower or a note via the birthday wishes...and sometimes that is the only birthday wish they get. So keep it up!!! Thanks for all the time you gals take!

I try to be a silent cutie, although I post sometimes. I appreciate the birthday wishes very much. Since I don't have much time to embroider, I don't think I have much to offer, but I enjoy reading about other people and their projects. Thanks!
