Today, I celebrate another year of life—and more than the cake, the greetings, and the candles, what fills my heart most is gratitude. 🌸
I look back on the years with tears, smiles, and lessons... and forward with hope. Each chapter of my life—both the joyful and the painful—has been penned by no other than God, the Author and Giver of my life. ✨
Even as I walk this road with an autoimmune condition, I can still say with all my heart:
GOD HAS BEEN SO GOOD TO ME.
🙏 Grateful to My God
Every breath I take is grace. Every sunrise I wake up to is a reminder that I am loved by a faithful God who has never let go of me, even in my weakest days. He has been my strength when my body failed, my peace when anxiety crept in, and my anchor when things felt uncertain. He is the reason I’m still standing.
👨👧👧 Grateful for My Family
I am endlessly thankful for my two beautiful daughters, Jedi and Heart. You both give me purpose and joy I can’t even begin to put into words. Watching you grow with such kindness, wisdom, and strength reminds me daily why I keep fighting and thriving.
To Mike, thank you for loving me, for staying beside me, and for accepting all that I am—even on days when I don't feel strong or beautiful. Your love is a quiet comfort that holds me together more than you know.
🏠 Grateful for My Support System
To my family, churchmates, and every person who’s prayed with me, encouraged me, and made me feel less alone in this journey—thank you. You are God’s reminder that I am never without love, never without support.
💛 A New Year, A New Grace
This birthday isn’t just about adding a number to my age—it’s about counting the countless reasons I’m still here, still hopeful, still choosing joy. I may be carrying a chronic illness, but I’m also carrying strength, faith, and a heart full of love.
So here’s to another year...
Not just of surviving—but of living fully, loving deeply, and leaning completely on God's grace.
Thank You, Lord, for my life. I give You back all the glory.
