birthday thoughts

my birthdaySo my birthday is coming up and I am trying to figure out what have I learned in this short life so far. I know that walking with God is better than walking by myself. I know that I am still crazy but not as crazy as I just to be. The peace God brings me beats anything I have ever taken in pursuit of peace. I am never really alone. Life is not always easy or a bowl of peaches but I am blessed and I love my life. I used to think being out partying my head off was the way to be. Now I realize that the most fun thing is to play with two of the coolest little kids I know on a beach with the cellphone turned off or to curl up next to my husband and watch Its me or the Dog or Tori and Dean-home sweet home. I realize that what defines me is not what I do or what I look like but whose I am. I am Gods and , He is mine. And after all that - I am Jeremys wife, Jayden and Sydneys mom, and Isaiahs buddy. Nothing beats your family. So on this birthday coming up I am going to celebrate getting better with age. Life is sweet.
