Marriage
It is still early in the morning, but already I've had such a special day....I've been given gifts I will always treasure, ones that can't be bought in a store.
It started right after midnight, the very first minute of this, my birthday, and there on the desk when I came into the room was a small white envelope with my name.
It was leaning up against the computer monitor, with a heart drawn in red on the front, and inside was a card that had been so lovingly made, with words of love, so wonderfully expressed, filled my heart with such joy that I couldn't speak.
You give me so much with value beyond measure.... your love, your time, your caring means so much, the love we share is my greatest treasure!
Early this morning, as the day began, the phone rang - and I thought "who could this be?" Getting a call so early is not the usual thing, and I sure didn't think it was for me.
But it was, and on the phone was my youngest son, wishing me a Happy Birthday too.... this one of my three that never remembers, was the first one to call, making the day special all over again, the gift of his remembrance another treasure to hold in my heart.
The hours stretch ahead, and my thanks I whisper to God, my Father above, who has given me such a wonderful new life, filled with joy and happiness, and most of all, with love.
