One year older.

I'm  pretty low key about my birthday.  

The day itself not necessarily the present part.  I love me some PRESENTS! But, I like them everyday or as soon as I can find them.

It's been, in my brain, a way to reflect over my year of growth.  Whether it's inside or outside....I'm constantly growing.  Did I meet the marks I wanted to?  Am I doing the things I'm supposed to?  It's like New Year's without the streamers and honking sounds. 

So as I sit in front of the computer and look over my past year, I think of (in no particular order)...

• Spiritual......I grew as much as I let myself.  I'm not an all knowing theologist, nor am I as unknowledgeable as I was.  I can figure out where to find the books of the bible without my cheat sheet.
  
• Friendship..... Some old, some new, some treasured, some left me under a bus and backed it up over me.  Overall, minus a few broken bones... I'm doing just fine.
  
• Family......My children and Hubby are still putting up with me.  I can't begin to list the changes I see in all of them but, I know that God is good!
  
• Work.....It's not at the top of my list anymore and for that I'm thankful.
  
• Physical......No pounds lost, No pounds gained.  I can still buckle up my favorite pair of jeans. WOO HOO!!
  

So that's my year in review.  There were laughs, giggles, tears, and TONZ of coffee.  I know it's a short list but, there's stuff that is unspoken and in itty bitty print between the lines.
