just wanna tell You, i'm thankful for all You have done...

I just celebrated another birthday last week (yayyy! go me!)

And I don't know if it's a symptom of getting older but wow, talk about feeling so so so thankful. 
And not just for the gifts.

Now don't me wrong.... I love pretty clothes and gifts cards and flowers. LOVE those things.

But I was just so blown away about how BLESSED I already am. 
I love stuff (often, more than I should) but I love people more than stuff. 

I am blessed to have wonderful family and friends. 

Friends who make me feel somewhat sane in the midst of chaos! What a gift!

3 of my nearest and dearest shared a "feast" last night of nachos, rice, beans, sopapillas, etc. and we talked and talked. And I needed that. And it's great to have amazing friends. :) BLESSED.

And of course, BLESSED that God would look down and see something in me worth saving. So unworthy yet so BLESSED.

just thankful, that's all.
