The Sweetest Things

When I woke this morning I almost forgot it was my birthday until my eyes led me to the kitchen table where there were homemade cards propped up perfectly from my family.  I also got a text from my sister this morning. These sweet simple things are what make birthdays special. Reading those cards brought tears to my eyes- which isn't hard to do these days- but this time it was a feeling that the power of a simple heartfelt phrase or drawn flower can make such a big- no HUGE difference in someone's day- it did mine. Thanks guys- you're the best. I love your artistic endeavors!
