Despite my somewhat curmudgeonly attitude, I am thankful for birthdays. Yes, as you get older they become less and less important and not the Big Deal they are when you're younger (I kinda forgot it was my birthday until my husband reminded me), but they also take on a new significance. We can wallow in self-pity that we are getting older, or we can celebrate that this beautiful thing called Life gave us the privilege of one more year. I choose to be thankful for one more year.

Don't tell anybody, but this year I turn the big 4-0. I am definitely curmudgeonly about it. I'll try to remember to be thankful. Thanks for the reminder. And, happy birthday to you!
