Today is my birthday and I wanted to write something deep and beautiful, something thoughtful, full of wisdom from another year lived. But I’m a tired mom of 38 today and I’m saving all my energy for changing diapers and cleaning up messes on the floor, and comforting toddler melt-downs, all the while dealing with all the chaos in this wedding season because of Covid. It’s been a year. And as much as I’d love to be somewhere epic celebrating, at this moment I would much prefer a babysitter, a nap, and some really good chocolate cake. And I’m hoping to get all three today. My life is far from perfect these days, but it’s a wonderful life. I don’t know what this year holds for me, but I pray I’ll have the courage, resilience, and joy (along with a sense of humor) to live it to the fullest, with overflowing love and grace.
