Happy Birthday to Me...

...or as I like to think of it...Happy 5th Anniversary of my 29th Birthday!

When I was little, in the weeks leading up to my birthday, everyone would ask me what I wanted. I always had an answer for them. This year, though, I already have everything I've ever dreamed of. I have an amazing family and wonderful friends.

I have a husband who is my best friend, and who has been by my side for almost 15 years. And the best two gifts I've ever been lucky enough to receive are my beautiful children. Monkey and Spike are my miracles, and I couldn't ask for anything more.

So on this birthday, I really don't need anything more than I already have. I will spend the day being thankful for the wonderful gifts in my life.
