Well, let’s see we had Halloween, Thanksgiving and there is another big holiday coming up on Monday (Nov. 28th). Does anyone know what that is?
It’s a very special day. It’s my birthday.
Some people hate birthdays. There are women who are 39 forever . . . but I love them.
What do you love about them? Cake, presents, ice cream, love . . . .
I love them because it’s your special day and you have people who love and care about you saying “You are special.” I wanna feel like that every day.
The only thing I don’t like about birthdays is the song. Happy birthday to you. Happy birthday to you. Happy birthday dear . . . .Happy birthday to you. Perhaps we could revise the words. We love you so much. We care about you. You look like a . . . . And you smell like one too. Just kidding about that last part.
The other thing I don’t like about birthdays is when my boys were little and the one with the birthday was getting all the attention and presents, the other one would get jealous and sad. When I was little, my grandmother had a solution for that. They were called love gifts. She would bring little gifts for everyone who didn’t have a birthday that day. Just some little thing but it made you feel good.
That to me is the whole idea. Love.
Dear God: Please help us remember how special we are and that we have people who love and care about us. Amen
