Today

I truly don't have the ability to convey what today has meant to me. I didn't know it was possible for someone to feel so loved. Between this amazingly sweet book my husband made me, to phone calls and texts and crazy amounts of gifts on our doorstep, to my kids wishing me happy birthday 87 times each, always with a hug...I am just overcome.

I spent nearly two hours reading so many entries from so many of you in this incredibly treasured book (and I am not a slow reader). And just laughed and cried and cried some more. You are the greatest friends a girl could have and I thank you so very much.

And my incredible husband, where to even start? I told him I felt ridiculous even celebrating today, because he has been celebrating this fun milestone of mine for days and days. He is the greatest blessing I have ever been given and I love him something fierce.

From the deepest part of my heart, thank you dear friends. Just when I think I could not feel any more overwhelmed with all that the Lord has blessed me with, something like today happens. And I am humbled to the depth of my core to be surrounded, supported and loved by so many.

Forty is already looking pretty fabulous. Count me in.
