Forty One. Feels like a big year to me. I have always been enthralled with the fact that I was born in January. I loved that my birthday was just after the New Year. It whispers a fresh beginning with the turn of the calendar. How special that I could not only see a new calendar year ahead of me, but I could live the next birth year alongside it too. It's a little hard to explain but while other people start their birth years scattered through the year, mine runs alongside the start of a new calendar year.
When I was young, I had many birthday parties canceled because of snow. Even when it didn't snow for weeks before, I could usually count on it snowing on my birthday. It was a downside for sure but as an adult, I have come to look forward to it. I call it Celestial Confetti. It's as if God is celebrating my day with me. Today, I was not disappointed! Just look at how beautiful it is!! It snowed off and on while the sun shown bright. It warmed my heart. I had so many sweet birthday messages from friends, family and loved ones wishing me a special day. I'm one very blessed woman and my heart is so very, very full! How did I get so fortunate? Thank you Lord! This is going to be another beautiful year!!
