Proulxville: Birthday Wishes Will Come True

Well, my birthday was yesterday, and I'll have to be honest. I wasn't thrilled about it. In fact, I had decided that I would not acknowledge it all because I had no desire to get older. What girl does? I mean really ladies, don't we fight it every chance we get? 25 is a great age, and I'll keep it...forever. I went so far as to wanting and praying that my dear friend would have her precious baby girl on the 27th (she was ready and willing I might add.) I really wanted to pass on the special day to that baby girl and allow her the joys of 25 great years. Maybe then, she might want to pass it on as well.

But despite my best efforts to stay home working on my next big (you're gonna love it) project, I was completely showered with love. I received phone calls, texts, Facebook messages, gifts, flowers, cards, and surprise visits all day. I was even treated to German yumminess at one of my favorite spots in town. It was quite amazing.

Then last night, I realized that it was truly AMAZING because it was a blessing from God. He spoke to my heart and reminded me that birthdays are good and special, and this birthday was really important. He wanted me to turn 26 and enjoy it.

In my 26th year, I'll become a mommy. And for that, I will gladly age. It took me fighting tooth and nail to realize, but I am so incredibly blessed and happy. So here's to getting older because the best years are yet to come!
