Birthday

You know the feeling you get when the next day is your birthday, Christmas, or even just an exciting upcoming day? The excited feeling about an upcoming vacation - the "I can't wait!" feeling? The bubbly feeling you have when you lay down that night before you go to sleep - hoping to dream of the next day! Because you know that the dream will come true when you wake up to find that is indeed your birthday, Christmas, or other exciting day? The anticipation that builds up over a week, maybe even a month when you are thinking about opening presents (as a child) on Christmas morning? The overjoyed feeling you get when thinking of what fun lies ahead for your birthday? The feeling you get when you are so in love and look forward to the next time you get to see the object of your affection?

And then the day gets there - it's everything you hoped for, dreamed of, but even better! You get that giddy, over-the-top happy feeling all day long, the feeling of "this might possibly be the best day ever" feeling, the I can't stop smiling hurt face, the "I never want this day to end" thoughts?!

That is what I feel every single morning I wake up. I wake up feeling like every single day is my birthday. I roll over to find a husband that loves and adores all of my oddities and insecurities as if they were treasures - my child that smiles the biggest ever smile when his little eyes open and see my face each morning. It is my Christmas morning, my birthday morning, the morning of the big vacation day. It's every single day! I am over the top.

I am so thankful my heart is glad and happy. I am so very, very happy!
