Birthday Blessings


Each year I am amazed at the blessings I receive each year for my birthday. While Dave and I spent a low-key birthday, I was remembered by friends and family.

This year I had four birthday cakes. My sweet friend Stacy brought a dulce de leche cheesecake to work. My thoughtful husband Dave brought home a small raspberry cake home. And our adopted family, the J's, provided both a delicious creme brulee cheesecake and a tasty sheetcake with "Biranda" written on it. (You can read about our celebration here.)

My sideboard is stacked with all the cards I received from friends and family. My wallet is full of money from my parents and in-laws for one heck of a shopping spree. I have a beautiful new box to hide my money in until I'm ready for that shopping spree. My car has a new CD player, complete with I-Pod capabilities. And, I have a fire pit just waiting to be used when the weather cools off. I even have a new picture for my office at work.

And, my heart is full of the love everyone sent my way.
