Happy Birthday to #1 today.
#1 is my very first grandchild and it’s a very special birthday for her as she turns 21 today!
Happy Birthday dear one. May the dear Lord bless you today and always!
Happy happy birthday!
If you can't see the Bright Side, polish the dull side
THOUGHT FOR TODAY
We are celebrating today in a big way as today is also our family gathering to celebrate Easter. DS#5 and his family will be our hosts for this special day. I’ve got plenty of good things to take to contribute to the festivities as has everyone else that will be joining in on the celebration.
This day was also my dear departed Mom’s birthday too. A very special day indeed. One I’ll never forget. I remember my mother with loving thoughts.
Thankfully the weather is supposed to be wonderful for us today. At this time of year, if we have 60 degree temps and sunshine, it is a blessing for sure. That means all the grand babes will be able to get outside for an Easter egg hunt, which is always the main event for our family’s Easter celebration.
The day could only be more wonderful if #1 and all those in my family could be here. We’ll be missing those that can’t be present for sure! The pictures today are of Easter here at my house last year.
I hope you all have a super Saturday and celebrate the day!
COUNTING MY GIFTS
I have counted at least 3 things every day that I'm thankful for a little over a year and have now reached 1500 gifts. On my way to 2000. I'm not stopping, but will continue on counting. There is always, always something to be thankful for.
1571. for #1, my first granddaughter is celebrating her birthday today!
1572. for family get togethers, making more memories of good times
1573. for the sharing and caring people in my life
Enter into His courts with thanksgiving — and in His presence is fullness of Joy!
PRAYER FOR OUR TROOPS
Please pray for God's protection of
our troops and HIS wisdom for their
commanders.
Lord, hold our troops in
your loving hands.
Protect them as they protect us.
Bless them and their families for the
selfless acts they perform for us
in our time of need. I ask this in the
name of Jesus, our Lord and Savior.
AND bless our Police Officers, Firefighters
and Paramedics and EMT's
GOD BLESS YOU ALL!
A little smile, a word of cheer,
A bit of love from someone dear…
Love,
ma

Happy Birthday to #1 and a special Happy Birthday to Mom... An early Happy Easter and enjoy the day with your wonderful family... :)
Happy birthday to your 1st grandchild! What a wonderful gift she must have been too to be born on your mom's birthday; two very special people in your life born the same day years apart.
I hope your family had a great Easter celebration, but I'm thinking all did with lots of good food and treats for the kids!
