I made it another year!
It seems like just yesterday that I was crying my eyes out on my birthday before getting up the next morning and taking my one and only off to college.
It's hard to believe it's here again as this past year has literally flown by. As I look back over the past 12 months it's all I can do but count the many blessings that have come my way.
It's been a banner year on several levels.
I've experienced a lot of personal growth, watched our son leave the nest and spread his wings, and made many new connections and friendships along the way.
It's funny how some people see their birthdays as just getter older. I see each birthday as the gift of another year!
And so...
as I embrace my 53rd year I want to thank you all for being a very special part of my life... you have no idea how much your friendships have meant to me!

Happy Belated Birthday Terri! I still am trying to make it into Little House and I can't wait! You deserved that place more than anything! I hope it is doing well. When I work at Loot customers want to know the address and I always tell them about your talent and give them precise directions!
It sounds like you had a great birthday weekend(Happy Birthday)with lots of shopping & some pretty yummy looking food. You son looks very happy with his new couch!
