Finally, an Update!

One year older and wiser too...yes, that's me today, since yesterday was my birthday! Just wanted to post a note that I will continue to use this blog for updates related to my family, and future grandchildren. I feel quite lucky to live in a time when I can easily make a permanent record of the happenings in my family's life.

I am working on a couple of other blogs and when they are published, will put a link here.

So for now, a few thoughts flowing through me head...

Birthdays are funny. When we're little and don't really appreciate gifts, we get tons of them. When we're more mature and have learned how to appreciate gifts, we get few-to-none or we buy ourselves a gift! hahahaha

Ok, so let me admit that i did buy a birthday gift while in Fresh Market yesteday. It was a cute garden Gnome, and it was marked down as low as it could go. Morgan saw it and said I should wrap it up and give it to myself for Christmas. Actually, I'm going to ask him to find a box and wrap it up. By Christmas Day I will have totally forgotten about it, and since Morgan will have wrapped it, won't have a clue when it's "given" to me!

Hahahaha, we just must find the humor in life. There are times enough when tears and challenges arrive unannounced and unwelcomed, the rest of the time is for smiling, giggling, living gratefully and laughing as much as possible!

Well, I'm off to enjoy this wonderful new day with a huge smile on my face and in my heart!
