I was always big on celebrating my birthday;
from as far back as I can remember. I
made a huge deal over it, threw hints or be very straight forward about the
gifts I would like. I try to do something different with my hair, buy two new
outfits, one for going out on my birthday, and one for church. Since I got married; it dawned on me that my
birthday celebrations will need some adjusting, as my husband view birthday as
“just another ordinary day!” can you imagine? These are just some reasons I
celebrate my birthday with confetti and drums. I am slowing dragging him to
celebrate his birthday just as loud.
I am Alive!
I have lived to see another year!! This reason
is definitely my number one. Celebrating my birthday is absolutely much better
than celebrating my death. Yes, even in death I would want a huge celebration.
I Grow in Wisdom
I have one grey hair on my leg to prove it! I
no longer make the same mistakes in my teen years or early twenties. I look
forward to all the life lessons before me.
More Accomplishments
As I got older the more I accomplished.
Looking back, I know for sure I have not done my best in all things. But I am
very proud of myself for completing. At my age, I have a Bachelor’s Degree; I
wear the hat of wife, mother and entrepreneur. I see myself in the future still
wearing these hats, but wearing them with more sophistication.
More Time to Love
Having a partner to love another year is
awesome! Hugging my children and loving them every day is wonderful! Another
birthday means more opportunity to say I love you and prove it.
Reflection
Another year was granted to reflect on how
merciful my God has been to me. I see my countless blessings, and I am GRATEFUL.
My journey is really appreciated because of the miles I put in. I plan to burn
the tires out on life by creating more memorable moments.
