I guess if there was a perfect day to count your blessings, your birthday would be close to the top. Today marks the 46 time I have celebrated my birthday. I would have to say it turned out to be a wonderful day.
It was wonderful because I took some time to reflect on my life and all that God has really blessed me with. It wasn't hard identifying the extraordinary ways that the hand of God has been seen and felt in my life. So many things to be thankful for and so many people who have enriched my life. And all the birthday wishes on Facebook helped make the day one of the very best birthdays I can remember.
Tonight I went with my daughters to a big stake celebration. The outdoor carnival event, entitled, So Great A Cause, was the culmination of a stake summer project. Although I may not have had an impact on this event, the festivities and the moments leading up to this celebration, made an incredible impact on me. When they open the time capsule, hopefully on my birthday, years from now, I hope that the measure of my life will reflect my continued devotion to my Savior and my little family.
Today was worth celebrating!
