Well today is my birthday and although I started the day a little grumpy about getting older, I can honestly say my attitude has improved throughout the day.
From the minute I woke up my cell has been signaling me each time someone posted on the Facebook page. The day had been filled of birthday wishes from friends and family far and near, young and old. With each simple "happy birthday" I am reminded of a happy moment or event with each of these people. How blessed I am to have had thirty-two years full of relationships with people who I love. This day has reminded me to take extra time to reach out to people and use my free time to share with others.
Since it is Wednesday Jeff and the little kids have been at church this evening. But, I did have a surprise when I got home. Brand new white fluffy towels. I guess to some this may be lame, but it is exactly what I wanted! White towels make me feel like I am on vacation. It is a little thing that makes me smile. Did I mention there was also chocolate?
Lesson for today...being a year older isn't so bad. I'm not sure I am necessarily a year wiser, but I have had another 365 days of laughing.
