In the blink of an eye, I've gone from full-time wife, hands-on mom & librarian to a retired, empty nester rediscovering who I am.

07.30.2022 Happiest of birthdays, Brennyn Alexis!! 07.30.2022 Happiest of birthdays, Brennyn Alexis!! So thankful to have had this time with you, and to be able to hug you in person. on your special day. 

This is a photo of your first bath. Grandma is holding you while I rinse you with a washcloth. I think you are probably 4 or 5 days old. Thought it was fitting for this birthday. 

You never ever cease to amaze me in ALL the ways. I love you so much, love the mother you are to Cady and Dec and the wife you are to Mustafa. So proud of the loving nurse you are, the daughter, sister and Tia NeeNee. And, of course, responsible pet owner.
May this birthday year bring you many continued blessings. And only the tiniest hiccups. 
Happy birthday!! I love you.

And I added the glass mosaic piece I completed last summer for the table top. Not sure if I should leave the mosaic out in the heat but today it's rainy and overcast. 

Thank you,  @analuisaarias_artist for introducing me to mosaic  and thank you, @terrywrightstudio for providing me with new mosaic experiences.

America isn't perfect but it is a 250-year-old work in progress. And I am thankful to have been born in a country so many dream of moving to. 

God bless the USA.
