So, it looks like the rough weeks have subsided...at least for now. Life has found its normal routine again (if there ever was one). Ben reminded me last night that my birthday is coming up. Not that I forgot, but I hadn't realized it was coming so quickly. I will be turning the big three-oh on Sunday. I think that I am denial though because it hasn't fazed me. I still feel 25 (and probably still act it too), so why should I get all worked up about it. I think Ben is at a loss of how to celebrate it though. He says he has no idea what to get me and to tell you the truth, I don't know what he should get me either. I've been wanting a nice ladel, a couple of elastic-banded skirts, and some new books to read to Madelyn. But somehow that doesn't seem to properly honor the bigness of turning thirty. Oh well, it will probably turn out to just be another day in the life....and that is fine with me.
Loving God, thank you for your blessings in my life - a great husband, a wonderful little girl, health...just too many to count. As you know, my 30th birthday is approaching. It just can't seem possible! I don't feel thirty! But I am ready to start this year of a new decade of my life looking for you in the places that I haven't seen you before. I am looking forward to finding you in the most obvious of places and in the subtle places too. Please put your hand on me and on my family as I journey into this upcoming year. In your Son's name. Amen.
