As a child, birthdays are really exciting because of the presents and cake. When you get older, truthfully, birthdays can be a little depressing. I am quickly seeing my youth run away. I still remember how sad I was to turn 18. My wonderful young women's leader and good friend, Kellee Belnap, made me a Barbie cake. Today I turned 27, nearly 10 years older. To be honest I was a little depressed this morning. Jonathan would be gone all day until 8:45pm, and I had no plans. As my sweet children played on our patio, I prayed that I could be happy and have a good day. Well...I had a wonderful day. Why? FRIENDS and FAMILY!! I learned today that I have so many wonderful people in my life. People really do care about me. Thank you friends. You don't know how much your calls, texts, messages, wishes, and small gifts meant. My day was truly special.
The following video may appear pathetic but really is a sweet memory. I am glad that I could spend my birthday with my very own boys!!
