Happy 40 Years to Me!

I turned 40 today. And I’m honestly excited about that. 40 is an amazing milestone to make.

The past 40 years haven’t been the easiest. From the very beginning I’ve been a fighter. At 3 weeks, hanging by my neck in my crib, my Mother worried if I would make it and here I am 40 years later still going.

I’ve had ups and downs, I’ve had many challenges, broken-hearts and found love. I’ve had 4 gorgeous babies that I am madly in love with. I’ve questioned faith and found it. And I am overjoyed with my life every day.

I can’t honestly say I would have felt this way 5 years ago but today I see nothing but happiness, love and joy daily. Life is wonderful. I look forward to the future of our family and to every tomorrow we have. And I really wouldn’t change a thing about my past 40 years.

The seasons of life are short and as I head into my next decade of life, I embrace all my future brings. My heart bursts with happiness and love. And it’s all I could ever ask for at this time.

Here’s to my next 40 years… may they be all they surpass the last 40 and bring more joy and happiness every day.

Until next time…
