My Wonderful Birthday!

It's hard to believe that I'm 34! When exactly did I grow up? Somewhere in between high school DECA competitions and meeting this amazing man... it happened. Or has it? I'm still not convinced. I mean.. sure... I have bank accounts, bills, responsibilites, a career, a husband and a car...but I still love laughing my head off until tears fall, sticking my feet in mud and wiggling my toes, talking in a squeeky voice to the dog and playing harmless jokes on people.

Whether I'm "grown up" or still enjoying the process... one thing is for sure. Having a birthday is a gift. I feel so lucky to have been blessed with another year to experience that sweetness of life and I have this wonderful feeling of the years to come. There are so many things on my "wish list of life experiences", that I can't wait to see what the future holds for me. The unexpected experiences are often the best. As I wrote this, a small hummingbird came to check out the bedroom window. He hoovered there, at first further back, then cautiously came forward. He buzzed there in one spot for a few moments- almost as if to say "Good Morning! What's for breakfast?". See? Sweetness of life.
