Happy Birthday to Me!

It's nearly 6AM, which in my world means I slept in on my birthday.  Yippee!  I am thankful God has allowed me so graciously to see another birthday.  And not just see another birthday, but to see one with two of the world's worst sleepers next to me who are forever kicking off the covers.  To know that down the hallway is my big girl sleeping away in the room with her Oma.  That on the side of my bed is Jack's cradle waiting for him to come home, but is currently filled with Christmas sweaters and Christmas receipts my baby put in their last night when she was helping me clean the disaster my room had become.  I am blessed we've started a new family tradition where Vandy and Aunt Brenda stay with us for the week of Christmas.

I go to an awesome church in another world that is filled with sound Biblical teaching, good music, and loving, caring congregations.  I have the best friends and family on the planet.  A great job with good bosses and good co-workers.  I am truly blessed.  And there are no episodes of the Sing-Off I get to watch, maybe even tonight.  The Sing-Off rocks.  Maybe TTT needs to become an acapella group.  That would be hot!

Happy Birthday to me!  And thank you to everyone whose prayers, love, encouragement, truth, chats have helped shape me into the person I am today. 

It would take hours and days at a time
For me to sit down and write down all the things He's done
But let me say this
It's nothing I've done
It's the grace He gives freely to everyone

God's been good to me
Oh my God has been good
He is good
He was good
He will be good
He's always good
All the time He is good
