Today is my birthday. I am 35. Tomorrow, I’ll have things to say on the subject of birthdays (probably), but I’ve decided that today, I am giving myself a birthday gift: a Day Off.
I haven’t just taken a day off writing in I don’t know how long. I push, push, push and push more, trying to fit in as many things as possible to each day–and I love it. But it is exhausting, and I think it would not be a bad thing to choose to relax for one day, instead of feeling frustrated that I can’t get to items twelve through twenty on the list of Things To Do.
So today, I will ride my new bike with Alex…
I will kick back and read…
…or scrapbook with my Cricut (which is after all my birthday gift)
I will enjoy a lunch “hour” with my husband, hopefully while kids sleep…
Maybe I’ll even turn the TV on! (Gasp!)
And while I am offline, I will leave you some pictures to enjoy…

I love the pictures! You have a beautiful family! Very Blessed.
