This cracked me up. And I am the worst friend for forgetting your birthday. I will make it up to you very soon - and will bake whatever you want when I'm there. :)

So glad that you had a wonderful birthday! That is an amazing cake, and you look marvelous in your matching sweater! Praying for those white cells to cooperate, and wanted to share this meditation from Henri Nouwen with you:

“ Hope at All Times

It is central in the biblical tradition that God’s love for his people should not be forgotten. It should remain with us in the present. When everything is dark, when we are surrounded by despairing voices, when we do not see any exits, then we can find salvation in a remembered love, a love that is not simply a wistful recollection of a bygone past but a living force that sustains us in the present. Through memory, love transcends the limits of time and offers hope at any moment of our lives.”

Praying that you feel that “living source” every minute and hour of every day and the LOVE that transcends the limits of time!

Love you! 🙏🏻❤️❤️❤️
