Surrounded!

Yesterday was my birthday. Some people hate birthdays, some people love them. I am among the latter.
I wasn't expecting to do anything crazy, and nothing exactly earth shattering happened- yet it was a really, really good day!
Why? Because I am surrounded by thoughtful, sweet people. Just the fact that so many folks remembered and took the time to send me messages of birthday cheer during their busy days was quite touching. It also inspired me to make a bigger effort to reach out to others when their birthday's roll around! Sometimes the "little things" are bigger than we realize.
I 'm gonna go ahead and share my birthday wish: I hope I am blessed for many years to come with a life so full of caring friends and family.

P.S. Being given some rocking presents is pretty fun, too! Thanks Jon for the necklace, cupcakes, gift card, and errthang. Thanks Mom for the sparkly card and gift!
