Last year I did the most amazing thing for my birthday; it still bring tears to my eyes when I think about it. I wanted to do something really special to celebrate half way to 40 ( :-( )
To celebrate I decided to make 35 cupcakes and write 35 cards to 35 different people. To each of those 35 people I wrote one thing that I had learned from them that influenced my life for good.
I made sure that I handed the cupcake and the card to them, and told then to have a happy day.
My note went something like this...
Today I am turning 35, and to celebrate I am telling 35 different people thank you for being and influence for good in my life. From you I learned... ...Thank you for helping me to become a better person.
That night when I sat down for my birthday dinner I felt overwhelmed with gratitude; the Lord had blessed me with some amazing examples in my life.
If you do not look forward to your birthday and find that it's not your favorite day, I suggest that you do something like this. It will be the best birthday you ever had!
You can find the recipe for this cup cake on my other blog. Little Delights Cafe, its the raspberry lemonade cupcake.
