-Click on “Finder” in the dock (the little blue face)

Happy Happy Birthday Baby! Melody means http://www.thinkbabynames.com/meaning/0/Melody -meaning of Melody is “music, song”
Melody means an arrangement of sounds that is found pleasing to the ear. It is a quality found in music. In terms of music it refers to an organised sequence of single tones rhythmically arranged with one another so as to present a particular idea or phrase. A poem which is found suitable to be sung or be set to music is also referred to by melody. The word “melody” was from the Old English having being borrowed from the Old French and was from the Latin word “melodia” derived from the Greek word “meloidia” meaning singing or a choral song.
Melody is also a girl’s name of Greek origin. As a name of a person it means a song or music. It was first used way back in the thirteenth century.
~~You are pleasing to my soul and many others. You bring music and light to my life. I thank God often for bringing you into the world so one day you would be here for me and many others~~
Thank you so much! I love the collage sheet and the wallpaper is so beautiful that I didn’t want to open a window and cover it up. What a great way to celebrate!

Thanks for the freebies! Just a note for mac users – an easier way for the wallpaper is to just right click the photo and select “Use as desktop picture” done! And if you haven’t made your mouse right clickable – what are you waiting for?!
Just go into system preferences, hit mouse and make all your buttons custom! love it.
