It's my Birthday and I'm relaxing and free bees!

Today is my 55th birthday.  That sounds like such an enormous age!  I have a problem with my brain remembering I am that age and not 30.  I was at a cookout on Saturday with my oldest kids who are 30, and their friends who practically lived at my house during the teen years and now have families of their own - Where did the time go?   A few minutes ago I was ordering Pizzas and making cookies by the truckload and now they are talking about advanced degrees and mortgage interest rates.  Life is good!

Now that I have hit the ripe old age of 55 I understand a tad more the verse that says with God 1 of his days is as a thousand years with men.  With our experience of time past (memory) there is almost no feeling of time.  It does seem like yesterday I was trying to figure out how to buy back to school clothes and pay the rent, or bringing them home from the hospital..... I have always made the choice to remember the sweet things in life.  Let the hardships and injustices  go, they hold no good thing for today.

I have received some very beautiful birthday cards:
