I can't believe it. I really can't believe it!

It's been a whole year since left my tower. In a few days I'll be nineteen...and for the first time in my life I'll have a real birthday party. I told everything they don't have to do anything big...but I can tell my parents are up to something. I keep catching them whispering about something!

But still...I really can't believe I am where I am now. A year ago if someone had told me I was a princess, that I'd have a mother and father who loved me, and that I'd fall in love with a thief, I would have thought they were crazy. But that's really all true and I'm so, so glad to be able to share everything with you. I'm so grateful for my friends here. Your support has really meant so much to me, every step of the way.

Thank you everyone.

Happy Birthday. You have much to be proud of accomplishing over the last year. It was an honor to watch it unfold with you.

Oh, thank you. Your advice always helped me. I was glad to have you there to talk to.

I'm glad it served you well. But you would have triumphed on your own, no matter what help we community members offered, of that I am certain.

Do you really think so?

[the_visitor]

Yes.

Thank you. That means a lot.
