thankful tuesday…

DSC_0210-1

- for the 32 great years that God has given me…

- for my parents, who give me a weekend each year for my birthday when David and I don’t have to cook, clean, or have full responsibility for our children. That, my friends, is the height of birthday happiness at this stage of life… =)

- watching my boys swinging on the big swing set in my old back yard…

- finding a solitary daffodil in bloom… and feeling like it was God’s birthday gift to me…

- realizing that my rundown sluggishness this weekend was nothing more alarming than the beginnings of spring allergies…

- the special coconut whipped cream cake that I almost always ask Mom to make me for my birthday…

- the lemon flavored chapstick and birthday hat that Seth picked out for my birthday presents…. and his obvious joy over having a secret to keep about my big day…
