Birthdays & Blessings


It's 2:30 am...in 5 hours I'll be 42 years old.

Sometimes my body makes me feel about 90... 


...but in my mind I still think I'm about 20.

It's shocking to look in the mirror... 

...& realize I'm twice that! 




But it’s one’s attitude that counts, right?

I'd like to think that (most of the time) I have a good attitude...

My life is full of blessings & joy~not the least of which are the children in my life represented by these roses...

...I am a very blessed Auntie...

...a very blessed woman.

I'm thankful indeed for so much--my family, my health (such as it is!), and good & faithful friends.

My life is full & my cup is overflowing.

Happy Birthday to Me!

  2. The photos are beautiful! I only just recently learned the term "macro photography" (call me a ludite!). And, happy belated birthday! I hope that's not weird coming from a stranger, but I do hope you had a lovely birthday and will have a blessed year to come.
