How wonderful, and no, it's never to early to start planning a party, especially such a special one. If it were a wedding anniversary, the old timey traditional gift would be tin or aluminum and diamond jewelry as a more modern gift (hmm, wonder who got that change made?) so maybe the theme can center around one of those. As far as a get together, wouldn't it be wonderful if we could all meet somewhere? How fabulous would that be? But practicality rears its ugly head once again, with so many of us all over the world it just doesn't seem feasible.
How about a particular time chosen on that day for all of us to send a hug to one another at the same time? Would that potentially overwhelm the servers? It seems like a nice symbolic gesture. Just a thought.
Hugs...Joni Marie
