today is my 35th birthday. part of me can't believe it...35 years? really..? where has it gone? every year passes faster then the last. so today amongst the hustle and bustle of things I take a moment and pause to reflect on what I'm most grateful for at 35 years of age:
my relationship with god.
my parents. I love my parents with all of my heart.
my loving and sexy husband.
my crazy adorable Jack.
cheesecake with fresh strawberries (mind you - I ate an entire cheesecake this week)
my health. (maybe I shouldn't of listed cheesecake right before my health)
the smell of Spring.
the laughter of Jack vibrating through the house.
the quietness of being alone.
receiving so many phone calls today from friends and family to wish me happy birthday, just to hear their voices made me smile.
being inspired.
the morning walks I take with Jack and Mike.
fresh flowers in the house.
the awe inspiring miracle it is to be pregnant and feel this baby
move inside of me everyday.
the happiness I feel on this next journey of my life and all the wonderful and beautiful things that await us, our family.


I'm crying.....my beautiful beautiful daughter who has become a beautiful beautiful woman, wife, and mother.
