Today I had a birthday.
8 years ago I gave birth to my first born daughter 4 days before I turned 25.
I am horrible at math and I still know that the total equals me turning 33 today. (correct, dad?) :-)
My birthdays used to mean celebrating all month long. I loved and still do love birthdays but when it falls so close to your child's it starts falling on the back burner. That's perfectly fine with me because I have memories of fantastic birthdays and now its my turn to creating great memories for my girls.
Today I am thankful for:
Face Moisturizer because my skin does not look, act or feel 25 anymore.
My gray hair that I keep finding spurting out the top of my head.
The bags under my eyes. I inherited them from my dad and will forever remember him every time I look in the mirror.
A husband who doesn't care about any of the issues I just stated.
I am thankful for my health, my children, their health, my husband, family. I am thankful I am able to work from home and stay close to my kids if/when they ever need me. I am thankful for God and for his constant loving of me even when I feel its not deserved. Many blessings have been handed to me and many more to come.
Enjoy your family~
