Another year goes by and I feel like I should be kinder, more patient, or smarter. I feel like I should be able to check off numerous items from a to-do list, or a bucket list. I feel like I should have some great accomplishment to show.
But I don't.
And I'm okay with that. Because I have two beautiful children who love me and think the world of me. I have a wonderful husband who helps me. And I have so many blessings to count and friends who are dear to me.
And every year I'm able to reflect on all the love I've felt in the past year. And every year my heart is full of gratitude. And every birthday I am eager to see what this new year will bring.
But, this birthday was super low-key, and absolutely great.
It started by opening gifts that the kids and my parents had wrapped for me.
And turned into the kids opening all the gifts.
I had a wonderful Thai food birthday lunch, went on a lovely birthday walk, spent some good quality birthday time with my family, and even made the kids birthday cake to eat for me!
Thanks for a great birthday!
