A Birthday to Remember...

Well, another birthday has come and gone. Funny, I seem to struggle with them more than most. I'm not sure why, but I can say that my husband has a way of always making them special for me. And this year was no exception.

I could say it was the awesome gifts that he bought me. Or, the fact that he got me a cake that read "Happy Birthday Mama" and the kids were SO excited about it. Or, the fact that he made sure that the one thing that I asked for on my birthday was to spend time with ALL of my children - and grandchild (who is still here sleeping:)...but most of all it is the fact that he always makes sure that it is MY special day. From the time I wake up, until I go to bed, he continues to tell me Happy Birthday and how much he loves me. How much better could it get?

I did get to spend the day with all of our children, except Heath who was working. That to me is the best gift of all. I almost hate to go to bed because I know tomorrow it won't be my birthday...then I realize when I wake up nothing changes. I still have my family (healthy, happy children), and my husband. It's like everyday is my birthday. ONLY NOT ADDING THE YEARS!

For those of you who know me well, I don't age gracefully. But who wants to age anyway?

Thank you to ALL my family and to my best friend DeDe who sang Happy Birthday on a cell phone message :) and to all my wonderful friends who sent me ecards or email birthday wishes. I am very blessed to have so many wonderful people in my life.

Life is good.
