Happy 43rdHappy 43rd to me... I heard the "birthday"song early this morning on my voice mail and again over my speaker phone (both my mom) and it brought laughter and tears to my eyes... Yes I am a grown woman but the child inside of me is still here..she is peeking out wondering where the presents are, the birthday cake (and hoping the amount of candles will not end in a 911 incident) and thank goodness no one here likes clowns (they are creepy). The only problem is, I am home alone with my puppies, the husband is at work, the son is at his dad's house and my family live many miles away from me. Now don't get me wrong I am far from spoiled but this is my 43rd, at least it wasn't my 38th or 40th when everyone forgot my birthday until several days later. I guess I am thinking way too much of my father (may he rest in peace) and my family at this point but I have been in tears for much of the day. I got on facebook for a minute, answered all the birthday greetings and then got back into bed and remained there until just a few minutes ago when the need to write something compelled me to include this blog in my suffering/pity party.. I don't know that anyone will read this and maybe a small portion of me is looking for some kind of rally of sympathy but to tell you the truth that is not what I want, I could not tell you at this point what it is I really want other than to vent some of these feelings that are welling up inside of me at this point! I appreciate this forum because it brings all the beauty of nature to me when I am unable to see it myself and it allows me to communicate with other people with the same desires to communicate through the beauty in our gardens. Thank you and God Bless! Delly This blog entry has been viewed 349 times

happy birthday Delly!! I got a card once that said birthdays are God's way of telling you He loves you. It's only natural to feel a little sad, thinking of your dad and far away family. I'm sure you have many happy memories of your dad as I do mine. Think of all the happy blessings you have and go call your mom and tell her you love her. Hope you have a great day, and God bless you too. Remember He loves you and your never really alone.
Hello Delly and Happy Birthday! Aww, birthdays can be a little bittersweet sometimes, hmmm? If I were you, I'd sit outside for a bit, and listen to the birds sing Happy Day! I hope when hubby comes home, he's armed with flowers and cake and a great big hug! Hugs from here too.
Happy 43rd Birthday Delly!!! Your family may not have been with you today but I'm sure you were in their hearts and in their thoughts.
Happy birthday Delly!
Thank you all for the wonderful words..I did sit outside and listen to the dogs playing (and chewing on my plants) I listened to some music from my dad's collection and thought about him for a few hours. I did some painting (water colors) and enjoyed the quiet..thank you all! Login or register to leave a comment. |
