Tomorrow is my birthday. I will be 55 years old. It seems hard to imagine actually. I made so many plans back in the day. I wanted so much to make a difference in people's lives. To really matter in the goings on of the world. I didn't spend much time as to how I could benefit from things all I really looked for was how my being could hopefully make others lives better for my part in it.
Tomorrow my grandchildren will gather at Chuckie Cheese for my celebration. (I attempted to cancel last week but no one even listened to me!) I tend to do things differently than others and with that in mind tomorrow each child that comes to wish me happy birthday will receive a gift from me. No gifts to me are allowed. My gift is having those who love me wish to spend my day with me. All I ask is a hug and a kiss. And what a wondrous gift that is! When a child who loves you hugs you the feeling is better than any gift their parents could passably have bought and told them to give. Think about it.....
On Monday my class will have dessert in my honor. I have some of the most amazing students ever and I am truly blessed. Even if I don't tell them as often as I should I am indeed blessed by both my family and my students.
