Today I'm thankful that the Mexicans beat the French in 1862. :0) lol jk jk...but I AM glad for an excuse to have party every year on May 5! It always makes my already special day, well...special! :)
I'm thankful for the girls at work...it's so much easier to get up every morning and leave my babies when I truly enjoy the people I have to work with. And, of course, they surprised me with some birthday gifts...a framed piece of art with my name and adjectives - NICE adjectives lol, a wall flower & shower gel - Sweet Pea, of course, AND beautiful, matching, pink jewelry - earrings, necklace, & ring - a BIG ring, just like I love!! Thank you, thank you, thank you, girls!
We had a fun little get-together/party last night at Uncle Eddie's...and will be having another one tomorrow night at Bub's...I'm so thankful for a big family with lots and lots and lots and lots and lots...and LOTS of parties - and love.
And, I'm thankful for Facebook; I got birthday wishes today from some people who I haven't talked to in over 10 years! lol And, for all the other special people in my life who stopped for a moment to say Happy Birthday, thank you. I love you!
You know I mentioned last week that a family acquaintance, Meagan, passed away unexpectedly at the age of 28. I'm signing out today with a little excerpt from her father-in-love, Dan:
This week's challenge: Time offers you no guarantees. Find the number and make the call. Send that email. Write that card. If they're near, go meet them for lunch. Go find that special person, wrap them in a hug and tell them you love them. And then go find another one. Always, always tell them you love them -- and mean it. That way, when the news comes they're gone, the things they'll last remember you saying will be, "I love you." And that goes a long, long way.
Loving you,
Sarah
