4 years

Today was my son's 4th birthday. It was such a great day. Every birthday my children have I always recall the day the were born. It is kinda like a count down to New Years or something. I look at the clock and think about how I was feeling or what was going on during that time. Then the time they were born and the time shortly there after I remember how I felt and what they looked and smelled like. Anyway....
I never knew what my life would be like 4 years from that day. You know like when you go to an interview and they ask you,"where do you see yourself in 5 years?". I had no clue how different it would be. I would be living in a new house, in a "new" town(moved back to where I was from), with great new friends, different job, daughter in kindergarten, and the list goes on. I had no idea I would end the evening with one of my oldest friends, who 4 years ago, I had lost touch with and didn't even know where she was. I had dinner with her family and recalled old times. Four years ago if you would have told me how I would spend this same day I wouldn't have believed it. I am so thankful for the blessings of family and friends, and I loved, loved, loved, getting to spend my son's birthday in this way!
