I'm veering from my usual Sunday inspiration post this week because today is a special day for me. It's my birthday, one of those milestone ones—(yikes!)—and it's also my wedding anniversary. My family and I will be celebrating by attending a four-year-old's birthday party this morning ☺, then going out for dinner at my favorite Mexican restaurant tonight. I think I might even let my husband persuade me to order a margarita this time. ;-)
So in lieu of today's inspiration, here's a video that reminds me of aging—but in a good way. It's Five for Fighting's 100 Years. You can find the lyrics here. Enjoy!
Happy Birthday and Anniversary! Hope you have a special day!

ReplyDeleteThanks, Cathy!
DeleteHappy Birthday, Dana! And happy Anniversary! We celebrated our anniversary this month, too! Love that song, btw. It was played at our parents' 50th anniversary a few years back. Such a great song!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Aneta. Happy anniversary to you, too!
Deletehappy everything! birthday and wedding...a cause to celebrate!!
ReplyDeleteBTW...life doesn't really begin till your 50.
Thanks! That's really good to hear right now. :)
Deletehappiness on all the wonderful occasions---love love that song :)
ReplyDeleteComing in late to bring you birthday and anniversary good wishes. Does having them on the same day help your hubby remember? LOL
ReplyDeleteLife only gets better if we look ahead with excitement and anticipation for what the next stage of life brings.
Yes, I really do think it helps him. :)
DeleteThanks, Maryann.
You got married on your birthday? By choice, or that was the only date available? Easy for your hubby to remember two important days in one. :-) Hope the day was wonderful. A party for a 4 year old sounds like the perfect celebration. ;-)
ReplyDeleteIt was by choice--and now hubby can never forget. ;)
DeleteWe probably wouldn't have attended the four-year-old's party had she not been the daughter of my very good friend. It wasn't so bad--loud, but not terrible. I ended up having a great day. Thanks!
A belated Happy Birthday Dana, did you have the Margareta?
ReplyDeleteThank you! I did, and it was wonderful. :)
Deletehow did i miss your birthday!?!
ReplyDeletemargaritas are delightful on special occasions!
i think i'll have one tonight in your honor!
and happy anniversary too =)
Thanks, Tara! Enjoy the margarita. :)
DeleteOMGosh I missed it! I knew I shouldn't have asked for that last drink- j/k. Happy Belated Birthday and it sounds like you had a great day. :)
ReplyDeleteHaha! Thanks! It was a great day. :)
DeleteBelated congrats on both (wise woman you are)! I've never heard the song or seen the video and it was hauntingly beautiful. Time does go by in a moment. ;) Enjoy every one of them!!!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Rita! Glad you enjoyed the video. :)
