I am blessed

Today was my birthday.

I was reminded through the ringing of the phone, opening mail addressed to me, receiving texts and getting a bunch of facebook messages; I am blessed!

I have people whom I love, and love me. They take time out of their day to uplift me and remember with me that today is a day about me. However, as each birthday goes by, I am starting to realize it matters less to me about the day and that it's "my day", but more that it is a day when I can chat with people who I don't always get a chance to talk to.

I am so thankful for the people in my life, and how they uplift and encourage me.

Also, my husband is so wonderful. He watched our two girls for me while I went out with a close friend to a dinner honoring foster parents (my friend is one). Kaylen is teething right now, and is quite a handful so this was especially wonderful to have a break from!

I am blessed.
