27th Birthday, No HAPPY!

Yesterday was my 27th Birthday and it was terrible. I shouldn't say that so clearly, it was until the evening I guess I would say. One of my good friends passed away from a horrible infection on her brain. Someone may wonder why I want to remember this, but I think it's important to speak about the heartache as well, because after all it is part of life. I woke up with a terrible feeling in my stomach because we all knew she was sick and then the day just got worse. I feel for the family, but also want to mention how much we love them and we are here for them. I felt such a strong connection to my friend for a couple reasons (one was that we were both pregnant at the same time) and now sharing her death with the day of my birth made me that much closer to her. I know God has a plan for all of us and I know she is in God's hands and there is no better place to be.
However I do want to mention that I got to celebrate my birthday on Sat. at the house with great friends and family and I thank my cute hubby for doing that for me and for everything else he does. Last night we were going to go to Durango for dinner, but my spirits were really low and I wasn't in the mood so some friends came by and had pizza and cake instead. I miss my friend and I am so happy that we became close before her departure. She will always be in my prayers!!! Here's to turning 27 on the 27th. Cheers....

  1. I thought about you all day yesterday knowing what had happened and it also being your birthday. Not that it makes it any easier, but she is in the best place possible. Love ya girl!
