Turning 40






So, a much-dreaded day turned into one of the best days of my life! Sandy and Jonna rang the doorbell and surprised me at about 1:30 in the afternoon on the 12th. I burst into tears, I was so overwhelmed and joyful!

The next day, we spent it together getting pedicures, going out to lunch with Tammy, and then buying me a new sassy outfit.

In the morning, Sandy presented me with a treasure--one I'll dash back into the house for if it is burning down. It was a charm bracelet with 27 charms, accompanied by a book with memories by all my dearest friends and family. I sobbed and laughed and then sobbed some more and I was encompassed by good memories and the love of all my dear ones. Thank you, Santos, for a most thoughtful gift.

That evening, Juston thew me a terrific party, and I love him so much for knowing exactly what would make me happy. Thanks to the Bible Study Ladies for delicious cakes and an amazing presentation! It was so grand to sit and chat with friends.
