34

years, that is.
i wish that was miles.

thanks so much for all the birthday wishes!
i woke up this morning to an inbox full of sweet emails and facebook
messages. a friend that delivered candy and balloons. another friend that watched the kids
while i ran. a mailbox full of cards. phone calls. kids that tried all day to get along and were great helpers today...made their beds without me asking, among other things. a husband that came home with flowers and ordered my favorite pizza. soon we will devour my favorite heath ice cream.
i feel loved ♥ it was a beautiful day. i have so much to be thankful for in this life. most of all, i am thankful for my Lord and Savior.

*i ran 4 miles tonight. it was a great run and my fastest in awhile (8:42 pace). not too bad for an
old lady. :)

while i was running, this song came on:

i love it.

Hey, Wendy... You got me for a second with that post title - not that you couldn't do it! But I was thinking this was a recovery week!

Glad you had a great day!

And that's another great picture!
