Yesterday I received this bouquet of flowers for my birthday. As I studied its beauty, I couldn't help but think of how it reminded me of all the people I had heard from yesterday--representing almost my whole lifetime.
I heard from people as far back as when I was eleven years old. And I received birthday greetings from people who had been a part of my life in my teens, twenties, thirties, forties, fifties, sixties, and seventies.
What blessings you have brought to me over this long lifetime. I am so grateful for you and for the color you have added to my lifetime bouquet of memories.
A special thanks to my husband, Larry, and my son, Jeff, who threw a little party for me last night. It was special. Thank you.
