And what would my birthday be without a quote?A very special thank you to my very sweet Aunt Bluebelle,that sent me the most amazing,thoughtful,tiny box of quotes that the following came from.A truly perfect,perfect gift.
"The greatest miracle is not to fly through the air,nor walk on water but to walk this earth."~Linji
It has taken me almost 46 years to see with clarity,that it is all about the walk.And yes, that mirror lets me know daily that time is passing but with each year that does indeed pass, I find myself feeling all the more more blessed.Age is but a number,inside I swear I am still 26 so I suppose,that old adage that you are only as young as you feel,really is true.
Today my only wish is to soak up the love of my friends and to savor all the moments with my husband and beautiful children and at the end of the day,know that the walk that has brought me to this day has been paved with some measure of sadness and sorrow but amongst that pain and sorrow, has been some of the most incredible joys I have ever,ever known.
*We pulled into the driveway last night,after a surprise dinner with some of my closest friends and their husbands,to find this on the garage door.Jake and Joe,so I am told,came up with the idea themselves and worked tirelessly to do this for me.Precious these little guys are.Who needs fancy presents?These are the best one's of all!

Wishing you so much happiness and joy on this day and for the rest of your life. If there is anything you are dreaming of and wishing for, then may it come true. I know your walk has not been easy but even with the sadness you have seen it's incredible that you are able to see the great joys in your life that surround you. Much love on your birthday to you.
