A blessed day

Ahhhh.. Today was just one of those days, one one of those sweet, and o' so rare days, when everything goes right... I woke up to my bright eyed 2 year old, ever so smiley and happy, exclaiming, "Hi! The sun's awake!"... My almost 3 month old full of smiles and coos... And as we laid in bed I realized that today was my spiritual birthday... 13 years ago I was baptized and looking back now at that younger version of me I just want to hug her and thank her for making the right decision... Had it not been for that fateful and cold night I would not be who I am now and I would not have the husband I have and these gorgeous boys... I felt today more than most days God's love and grace... As if He was telling me that He too remembered that today was "our" anniversary... My day home with the boys went as smoothly as could be...I don't know what tomorrow will bring but I am grateful for January 24th. 

For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. Jeremiah 29:11
