Today Is My Birthday

Today is my birthday and I'm with my husband in beautiful San Diego! We have been having a wonderful vacation and enjoying the ocean scenes, and all the gorgeous flowers that grow so effortlessly in this city. Today we went out to LaJolla Cove to enjoy the sunset. The weather has been so beautiful since we arrived. It's been in the middle to upper 60's! At times I have had to put on a jacket. I'm just not use to the "chill" that comes off of the ocean, but I'm enjoying it!There is so much to say about "where I am at this time in my life".

I am so blessed... that "my children walk with the Lord".

I am blessed... to have FOUR gorgeous granddaughters!

I am blessed to have two awesome "daughters-in-law" who chose to marry my two incredible sons!

I am blessed... to have my loving husband, whom I have loved since I was 12 years old! We have now been married 37 years! I think we're just starting to "fall in love"! LOL! Loving him has been my JOY, and going through this life with him has been wonderful! I am blessed... to have my sisters, Ronda and Karla. They are wonderful sisters! I love being with them anytime we can be together...and I love their husbands and families, too. We laugh a lot when we're together, and just have FUN!

And, I am blessed... to have my friends. They mean the world to me!!! They are "there" with me through my sorrows and joys. God gave them to me, and I love having them in my life!

God has been so GOOD to me! I have nothing to complain about, and everything to be "thankful for". HE is the reason I have such a lovely life.

I am blessed and I am so thankful that I know HIM!

We will be here for awhile longer, and each day I am going to enjoy it to the fullest!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME!

I am blessed....
