Yesterday was my birthday. We’d had a wonderful weekend, full of celebrations, cupcakes, friends and fun. My birthday, though was Monday. Yesterday.
Yesterday, we did nothing. My husband was nonstop with work, from 5:50am to 11:30pm. My daughter had school. My son took my makeup brush and cleaned a glob of spilled toothpaste with it. There were classes for the kids, groceries to purchase, things to do.
It was an ordinary day in my life. And before I can be even KIND OF bothered by that, I must realize that my ordinary days are full of healthy kids, laughs, busyness, and happy chaos. THAT. in and of itself. Is more than enough to be thankful for. THAT. in and of itself. Is the perfect birthday gift.
Perfectly happy chaos. An ordinary, perfect, healthy, happy, chaotic, birthday-day. How could anyone complain?
