The secret of staying young is to live honestly, eat slowly, and lie about your age.
- Lucille Ball
And yet I am in my happy place, I am pleased with the person that I am today! I am thankful for what the years have brought me – a loving husband whose firm hands have tenderly held mine for the last 15 years, whose generous spirit have indulged me in my numerous whims and wants; tight hugs and sweaty kisses from my three kids, who are my inspiration for continuously wanting to be a better person; a healthy body and a grateful spirit to enjoy the countless blessings; a big God up there who is continuously watching over my family. Like everyone else, there have been a few rough bumps along the way, but this verse always inspires:
For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.
-Jeremiah 29:11
And so I look to the future with HOPE because I trust my LORD.

Belated happy birthday! You're one hot momma, no need to worry about looking old. I think you're one of those women that will always look younger than she actually is.
