HAPPY BIRTHDAY........ TO ME!!

Well...here we are. Another year has past by and I am the big 2-8! Its been a great year! I got married a year ago, we're having a baby (Ella Hardin) and I will be working with the little kiddies. One thing I miss the most I guess is my grandmother. She was the one I spoke to about everything. I can still hear her talking to me and telling me Happy Birthday and saying, "I love you, Hun." I miss that... I miss her... but that's what we're here to do. To pass through this life with joy and happiness only to progress to the next level and be with our family.

I guess it seems really weird to be writing about my grandmother on MY BIRTHDAY, but I have felt her close to me today. I wish that there was a way for me to just blow out a candle and her be here with me for just a little bit so Tiffany and I could see her and so that we could tell her about her great-grandbaby that's on her way.

The Plan of Salvation is so real and I have seen the final stages first hand and soon I will experience the joy of watching it begin with our little girl...my little Ella. And so the cycle continues as one generation passes the torch onto the next and here we are about to be parents and I can see where my parents were when I was about to arrive and now I stand in their place. How grateful I am for the knowledge that I have and the joy I experience in my life beacuse of it.

So, HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME!! I am 28 today and have every right to be excited because of what I know to be true and the oppurtunities that have been given to me to progress in this life.

28 years since I have been born... 50+ more to go... and the ride is going to get better and better every step of the way!
