Today is my birthday

Today is my birthday



29.

Well.

Shouldn't I feel older?

I still feel about 25.

It was a complete shock to me the other day when someone mentioned that I was in my late 20's.

Crazy!

I'm mid 20's, I swear. Like what?

It's not that I mind getting older.

I just can't compute!

Today is my birthday

I have received so much love.

Flowers from the Chibota's

(along side anniversary flowers from Paul)

A gift snuck into my house from Jenna

Emails and texts with heartfelt messages of love, support and encouragement.

Many generic FB Happy Birthdays but also a few deeply touching, thought out messages of love.

Today is my birthday.

I am reminded that I am liked and loved.

I am reminded that God speaks through others to shower me with His love.

I am reminded that GOd says I am His Joy,

that he likes and loves me

and that he takes delight in me.

Today is my birthday.

I practiced wrapping wounds.
