From Outside The Fish Bowl


Alas....another year has rolled around for Lindsay. She hit the big 29 today. Her birthdays in the past have been somewhat skewed by events and happenings that evolved into the Lindsay Birthday Curse.

Today, however, I think the curse was banished. She received many wishes of love and best wishes, she had a gift of roses from her little man, and a party from her pals, all to celebrate the fact that she is!

Its been a tough year for this mom and her little girl as lots of transitions and changes have changed our paths many times over. She, still going through transitions, is strong and able to renavigate her way because of that strength. It is something a GPS system just cant' help me with, however. I can only speak from my point of view, but I can best describe it as once being in the fish bowl and now being on the outside looking in. It would be different if the view from the outside was bad and sad. I see a little family forming and a lot of happiness inside that fish bowl.

Thank you, GOD, for allowing me to raise your child these past 29 years. It has been an honor and now I know you are proud of the woman she has become. I know I am.

Happy Birthday Lindsay!
