But after my prayers tonight I just couldn't stop crying. Emotions have been high over the last 12-ish days. However, I loved kneeling there pondering about how happy I am to be here. yep. to. be. here.
To live on this earth at this time.
I'm thankful to parents who brought me into this world. They already had four children before me . . . . I'm eternally grateful they found a "need" for little ole' Emz.
[Thank you Saturday's Warrior"]
Trust me, their lives would have been a lot easier without me.
but.......
i
love
my
birthday.
I love birthday's full-stop.
Birthday's equalled:
family time
fabulous food
fine china
fabric napkins
cakes in faces
&
"all the monkey's in the zoo [who] send their best regards to you."
And I've always had a little thing about holding the cake.
always have.
Heck, yes, I can
I'm. a. freaking. birthday. girl.
Everyone who knows me knows this not-so secret fact too. What? ;)
I crawled into my bed. reached for my phone [one last check, right?!] to find an email from MY brother. meant the world to me.
really.
then the tears came again. [non-shock].
This post will make zero sense to 98% of you [I apologize in advance].
It's the little things with me.
And my brother . . . . . he nailed it.
I love you. MGE.
