Another Day

Yesterday, I turned another day older. I am now 45 years old. I can't believe how blessed that I am. I have such caring people all around me. My day started with Rocke giving me 2 wonderful cards (one mushy & one funny). I fell back to sleep, then after I awoke, I spent some time with my Lord and read my Bible. My sister Suz sent a text message. My sister Dotty called and talked and talked, which I thoroughly enjoyed. Then she calls back about 5 minutes later and said, "I just looked at the calendar and discovered it was your birthday". I also heard from:

-Cody called
-Kitty sent a text
-Amber sent a text and then later called so I could talk to Destiny, Jasmin, & Hailie
-Suz and Katrine sang Happy Birthday
-Vicki and Dixie (Rocke's sisters) sang Happy Birthday on Voice Mail
-Mom & Dad called
-Dotty called again
-My niece Mary Jo sent a text
-Rocke called a couple of times
-My friend Sue B sent an e-mail
-My friend Lori took me out for lunch and then we took her daughter to the park

I also heard from other from my friend Mickey and cousin Tracey. They had no idea it was my birthday, but it was so great to hear from them. I had a lot of laughs and will definitely have good memories of my 45th birthday.

It really doesn't matter that people remembered my birthday or not. I have such wonderful people in my life. Friends, family, church family. The whole lot! It is great to know that I am loved. I want to return the favor when I can. I am so blessed that I can hardly express in writing how I feel. It feels almost all warm & tingly. Kind of like when you have to go pee really bad, It hurts and then when it happens you feel relief. Wow. I describe things weird don't I.
