Today is my birthday and I want to thank God for it.
I thank him for a loving husband I can count on, for my five amazing children and their terrific spouses, and soon to be ten fun-loving grandchildren.
I want to thank him for having had wonderful parents and grandparents. I want to thank him for my precious sister, my loyal cousins, my fantastic friends, and all the readers and supporters of my first novel and this blog.
I’m grateful for the happy times I’ve experienced, and for the lessons learned through the sad times. God is truly awesome. I don’t know how anyone goes through life without knowing Him. He is my greatest, continuing birthday gift.
Oh Lord, How Great Thou Art for giving me this life.
And for never leaving me alone while I live it.
