Today I turned 24. Madigan turned 3. And Kyle turned 6 (spiritually).
In honor of that, a birthday wish:
As we start another year…
May we hold one another tightly, never taking that impossible, aching, breathtaking kind of love we share for granted…
May the loveliness of the littlest things bring us joy…
If we feel ourselves slipping away into bitter cold and sourness, may we find the
sweetness all around us…
And share it with others…
May we treasure the seconds, minutes, hours before they fly away…
Make us better friends…
And lovers…
And now…
Just before we blow the candles out…
Teach us to care without fear of consequence, to love without limit, and to stretch out our arms to the universe and say, “I will live all the days of my life and I will savor every one.”
love, elizabeth

You didn't say anything about Tim Tebow's birthday, which is obviously more important than all of this. I'm disappointed. :(
Happy Birthday!!
