Birthday Month

My hubby is quite the character. Each May he deems it his "birthday month" and he celebrates the entire month through. And by celebrate I mean whenever he wants something he reminds me "but its my birthday month!" and I usually relent.

So this year I'm claiming March as my birthday month too! I figure it will be fun to have an excuse to celebrate, right? The month is starting off great. The Bright Side Project (which I am lucky to be a part of) turned one today and we have some amazing giveaways going on right now. I'm looking forward to taking a day trip to NOLA this weekend to see "Dream Come True" an exhibit at the art museum. And the first day of Spring is right around the corner (and we'll get more daylight soon too!)

So to kick off my "birthday month" I'm making my dream wish list. Remember as a kid making mile long gift wish lists and truly believing each and every item would be delivered to you on that day? I miss that kind of magical thinking! As an adult, I now know how lucky + blessed I am to be able to have such a superficial wish list when so many around the world are dreaming of basic needs being met. God is good!

  4. happy birthday month to you! i love this idea... one day is just too short anyways. i so agree that as adults we limit ourselves, god, and our dreams because we are so weighted down with life sometimes. not that we need any of it, but it is fun to dream. it's my daughter's birthday month too, and for the past few weeks everything she sees goes onto the birthday "list".

  8. how can you say something like... people are starving to death, and God is good to me in the same sentence and then make a list of things you want more than those people to be fed. Your god is not in heaven in fact... your god is you.

    Hope you have a happy weekend and find plenty of fun things to do instead of cruelly posting criticism's on people's blogs.
