Happy Birthday to me!



My cup is truly full. I celebrated my 49th birthday this past week. To be honest, I have never been one to celebrate my birthday. While my age doesn't really bother me, I sure didn't feel like celebrating turning 49. I remember last year, I tried to take my birthday off Facebook so no one would realize it. Don't ask me why because I don't know why. Maybe it makes me the center of attention, which makes me uncomfortable. Maybe it's because I don't like people to spend money on me for gifts - especially my girls. Funny thing is, I have always made a huge deal out of my girl's birthdays. My motto has always been that a person should feel special on their birthday. Somehow, I just didn't apply that to me - but this year was one of my best birthday's ever! I received so many sweet texts, e-mails, cards, and phone calls. I had lunch with my brother and sister, and dinner with my family. I received flowers, cakes, jewelry, and M&M's. I felt so blessed on my birthday for all my friends and family...I felt special. Yes, my cup runneth over!


This is the day which the Lord hath made; we will rejoice and be glad in it.
Psalms 118:24
