Happy 90th Birthday

Happy 90th Birthday, Great-grandma Rehfeldt (to these three) and Grandma (to me) !!!!!!

As I was driving home from school this past Friday, I was just reminded of some things that I am so thankful for, and I thought I would share them with you. I am thankful for.....

A job where I can serve in a way that I love,
A husband that I respect and adore,
A beautiful city that I get to call home,
and three children that I would die for...
An extended family for which I am truly blessed,
A church that is growing and helping me to grow,
So many friends I can call on short notice,
But mostly, an amazing God that gave me all of the above.

He let's me serve Him and praise Him as inadquately as I do and yet loves me so fully.
You see all of the above are things that I could never purchase.......
They are gifts and with them, I am truly blessed!

For most anyone who reads this....you are a part of that gift, and I thank God for you (and especially, today, my very special grandma :)

Love the sign! I am sure you were sad, like us, that you/we couldn't be there today to celebrate. We are truly blessed with so many things, aren't we. Thanks for the reminder!

I missed you. I'm glad I have a sister that is so aware of God's grace in her life. We truly are so unworthy of the gifts He has blessed us with.

I may not have sisters in this earthly life, but my sisters in Christ are pretty great, especially YOU! And my cousins in this life are second to none! We missed you, too. I'm sure Grandma will love hearing about the sign. Mom is printing it out to take on her next visit!
