The A. A. Milne poem titled The End is obligatory upon becoming six:
When I was One,
I had just begun.
When I was Two,
I was nearly new.
When I was Three
I was hardly Me.
When I was Four,
I was not much more.
When I was Five,
I was just alive.
But now I am Six, I'm as clever as clever,
So I think I'll be six now for ever and ever.
Happy birthday, clever little goose.

Lovely! Happy birthday.
Happy little birthday. We're six too. It's a lovely age. Not that they all haven't been (theirs, I mean. For mine, I'd have to think it over a little more extensively. I remember thirty-four and a half being a bitch).
Happy Birthday!
Happy birthday, Miss M! Six is indeed wonderful (like bibliomama, I like them all so far).
Indeed, Happy Birthday Miss M! Six is a wonderful, and at times wild new world.
Happy birthday!
I too have purchased that book for every six-year-old I know's birthday. That punctuation and grammar is completely wrong.
I love that book! Happy birthday to your six-year-old.
I love Milne.
Happy birthday, stylish Miss M.! You are certainly a clever one.
Sweet, sweet baby girl! Happiest of birthdays!
happy birthday, for ever and ever!
In other words of A.A.Milne:
"HIPY PAPY BTHUTHDTH THUTHDA
BTHUTHDY." to Miss M!
Ah, six. I remember 6. Wish SC was 6 and JR 2 again!
Happy Happy Birthday, sweetie!
AW! I love Milne's poetry! I was just reading from Now We Are Six to my six year old the other day. We like "Has Anybody Seen My Mouse?"
Love that poem. Many many many happy returns to Miss M!
6 is fun! Happy birthday, M!
A very, very happy #6 to Mir!!
A very, very happy #6 to Mir!!
Love it, and a little sniffly that it's been so long since I've read that poem to my boys....
Happy birthday to the girlie!
Happy Birthday!
Happy Birthday to your little girl!
Happy birthday to your sweet girl!
I hope she had a fantastic birthday.
