a special day

today was a great day. we brought david powdered sugar dough nuts and chocolate dough nuts in bed this morning. the girls bought him one of those musical cards for him for father's day along with a golf pass that is good for the whole year. it is also bekah's birthday. she turned six today. my she is growing fast. david and bekah both picked logan's for lunch today. we also went there with some good friends after church. after church we came home and david's parents came over to give rebekah her birthday gift. (we are throwing her birthday party next friday night with family and friends.) after they left the girls went into their rooms to play with rebekah's new toys. david watched golf and i took a nap on the couch. it was a wonderful day.

do you ever find that it is the simplest of days that are enjoyed most? i find the older i get the more i enjoy just simple days. days that most people say are boring. i tend to enjoy those days the most. i find that i am more content in my life more than i have ever been. i've heard it said that women become the most beautiful in their 40's. i agree. i don't think it is so much an outward beauty, although i look at the women in my life, my sister, women friends and other family members and i see them more beautiful than ever. i think it's the inner peace that women in their 40's and older women get from finally being comfortable with who they are. accepting them selves just they way they are. they exude a confidence that only life experience can bring. now i don't mean to offend any of my younger women friends, it is just something that i have noticed in my own life.

anyway, i'm thankful for the simplistic days that sometimes seem to come my way.

bye for now......
