I think often about gratitude. I am grateful for so many things in my life.
This was the best birthday thanks to everyone who sent their good wishes my way.
This includes all of my FB friends and my blog readers and
everyone who reached out to me via the Internet and the US mail.
My wonderful husband whisked me off to a surprise overnight getaway
that included lots of surprises.
One of the best surprises was waiting for us when we arrived home.
From one dog cousin to another, this was sitting on my doorstep. How adorable is this?
Is my life perfect? Not exactly. We have had our share of health problems and like most of you, I worry about my children and their future. I no longer have a mother to turn to for love and advice and to be a proud grandmother to my kids.
I saw a great quote recently on Mark Lipiski's Fan Page:
This quote describes how I try to live my life.
Happy Birthday! I have one of those husbands who asks me what I want, but I love him anyways, lol. It sounds like you had a wonderful day and Mark's saying is so true.
