Day 349: Happy Birthday, Little Girl

Today, we celebrated my baby's fifth birthday.

Today, we celebrated life.

We celebrated each other.

Today, I took a good look around and reminded myself of everything I love. I saw the beauty. The potential. The fruits of my labor.

Today, I watched little children gather for a party. They laughed and smiled and giggled and played. They were of life and joy. They were everything kids should be.

I thought of the children who were lost yesterday as I watched my daughter and her friends. I counted my blessings. I thanked God. I appreciated the moment.

Today, life gave back to me.

Happy birthday, sweet baby. Thank you for the gifts you give me each day.
