today...

... is my birthday.

6am breakfast with the family (6am is the only time we could all be together within the next couple of weeks).
a long morning curled up on my couch with coffee, Bible, and journal.
thoughts and prayers and looking forward to a new fresh year.
coffee with a friend this afternoon.
counting grace gifts from the past year, excited to see grace in action in the coming year.

twenty-six feels lovely so far.

God is so very kind.
