Golden

Today I am golden.


It's been the simple things that have made it special:

• Opening birthday cards from my kids this morning while they all gathered around.





• Sitting in the car waiting to leave while my husband cleaned all the windows.





• Getting together with a friend for coffee and praying about big upcoming events in eachother's lives.





• Coming home to find my husband deep cleaning the bathroom.





• Having nothing but birthday cake for lunch (because I can).






The phone calls, emails, and facebook messages wishing me a happy birthday.





The beautiful weather.





Dinner with my favorite neighbors.





A special gift from my husband.







Early bedtime for the kids.

What a lovely 28th birthday!
