Tomorrow is my 30th birthday. For the past two weeks I have been thinking about turning 30 and it has kind of depressed me. I have thought about, “what have I done with my life, what have I accomplished”, I am going to be 30! I am no longer a young girl!
Well this morning as I lay awake in my bed I felt an overwhelming sense of love and appreciation for my life. I believe it is my Heavenly Family helping me feel that today, because it is quiet in my home, there are no distractions of the day yet.
I am just where I want to be. I have a wonderful husband that adores me and thinks that I am special. He thinks I am pretty and feels that he really is lucky to have me. I have three children. I have Isaac and Tate who are my best buddies. They make me laugh, they help me to stretch my limits to see who I really am and help me learn so many of life’s lessons to be a better person. I have a daughter in Heaven, Hope, who I believe in a way volunteered to live a short life here on earth so she could be a heavenly helper to our family. I believe this because I feel her presence in my life, in my family’s life often on a daily basis. I know she loves me no matter what and she is rooting for me to do my best so that we can all be together forever someday. I know all my family that has passed on before me loves me and they watch out for my family and my extended family. I feel them from time to time, like a warm blanket around my shoulders, encouraging me to be happy. I have family and friends here on earth who seem to put up with me and love me as well! My parents love me!
I have a home to live in, a bed to sleep in, food to eat, a strong Testimony in the Gospel of Jesus Christ, and a family to love.
I have all I have ever wanted. Life is great! I realize today, I am happy to be me!
Happy 30th Birthday to me!
