Tons of special memories come flooding back in to view.
** the kids making me a cake and singing
** joey giving me flowers and a cute gift to open up
** my sis taking me out to lunch
** my mom making me a spice cake with candles
** my family hugging me and telling me i don't look any older
**and yes, getting that stupid "old fart" card from Steve
Well this year only one of those things happened (the last one) so I had to throw my own party.
Here it is in a nutshell:
*** Look for lots of stuff to be thankful for , like I still have my eyesight and sense of smell and 2 ears that can hear Joes' Durango from a mile away.
*** Look at pictures of my 2 beautiful grandkids who have stolen my heart and have taken it to Netherlands
(is it OK to say Holland?)
*** Appreciate the most stable, generous, and loving husband in the world who comes home every night from work and yells "glo, where are you?"
*** Pray for my 2 kids that are the age I used to be when I enjoyed birthdays.
***Getting to hold babies when I go to church, (the baby sunday school or nursery)
*** teaching kids math and making them laugh because their mistakes are so silly.
*** Enjoying my 8 book club ladies who can't wait to get together once a month, just to talk and smile.
Actually, today was so laid back. I just enjoyed coming home and listening to the rain. God didn't even have to give me a rainbow. I felt his presence all day and His presents all day.
