Happy Birthday...

...to me!

Yup, today is my birthday. I usually love celebrating my birthday. In fact, birthdays were always a big deal when I was growing up but this year I'm starting to understand why people ignore their birthday altogether.  It probably doesn't help that Gabriel thought I was going to 89 today. Seriously.

In spite of that little hiccup, I enjoyed myself very much today. It was a beautiful sunny day here - my favorite kind - and I managed to make it through the whole day without cooking - yay! My mom looked after the boys for an hour or so and I went to my LSS, The Paperie. Alone. That is a gift right to be treasured right there, people.

I always find myself thinking deep thoughts on my birthday because I am grateful for the many gifts and blessings in my life right now and yet there is so much that I want to do with this wonderful life I've been given. 

Before I go, here's a page I made earlier this year about my first birthday. I love this picture and it amazes me that I was once that little girl. wow

Hope you're having a wonderful day.

Thanks for stopping by!
