**My Birthday Wish**

Today, the Happy Birthday e-emails started coming in for my birthday, which isn’t until tomorrow. It has meant a lot to me to receive all these well wishes already.

So many times we are asked “What do you want for you Birthday?”. Well this year my wish is simple. . I don’t want anything for me. I have everything I could ever ask for ~  a God that loves me unconditionally, a husband,  7 kids, a wonderful family, friends, and my FB family. . and then some. I am beyond blessed. I am not rich, but my needs are met. My richness does not come from earthly possessions rather my richness comes from the Lord. As a young girl my Aunt Barb taught me that.

I have a simple Birthday Wish this year that all of you can make happen. My wish is that every single one of you that reads or sees this post will do a few things.

1) Donate 1 tube of toothpaste and 1 package of feminine care products (yes, pads) to a local food bank/pantry, shelter, or family that you know that is hurting – if you know my story you know why this is near and dear to my heart and would be the greatest gift that you could give to me by blessing someone else with these 2 items. (If you don’t know my story and want me to share, just ask)

2) Go out of your way to do something kind tomorrow. It doesn’t have to require any money at all. . give a hug, a smile, a phone call. . or maybe choose to finally forgive someone that you have held a grudge against. Just do something out of the ordinary.

That is the greatest gift that I could ever receive on my birthday . . . all for the glory of God!! I love you guys and thanks again for all the kind words already. . one day early!!
