So I am sitting here going through my emails and trying to wrap up my day. While I am so excited to celebrate yet another day of life I can't help but sit here in sadness. I miss my mom when I wake up, I miss my mom when I go to bed..but I think birthdays are the most difficult.
We often forget that at every birthday we are reminded that it was our mother and father who brought us in this world...so when I wake up I will thank my father for everything he has given me but I will not be able to do the same for my mother. So I sit here having turned 29 years old and find myself wanting to thank my mother for everything she has given me over the years. I am who I am today because of her. Life works in such mysterious ways... I am so grateful for my family, my friends and all of those individuals who have touched my life in some way or another.
So to me in 2009...I can't wait to see what life brings me...whether good, bad, or stressful I can't wait to look it straight on and give it 100%..oh and to being famous...I really wanna be famous...hahaha It's still my birthday..and I can wish for anything I want!
Thank you in advance for all of the birthday wishes..and to my husband who is trying every way to make tomorrow a special day..just know that you brighten mine everyday...
