...and somehow I blinked and woke up 40.
For my birthday, my mom and Juliana (known in our family as the "cruise director") planned a little surprise party and totally got me. I'm usually pretty good at picking up on little surprises the kiddos plan, but this time I never saw it coming. Even when my dad and I pulled into the driveway smack facing the "Lordy, Lordy, Suz is 40" sign, it still never occurred to me. I guess it's just the age pickling my brain.
There were A LOT of candles on my cake.
My mom required help in lighting them. My "gifts" included bifocals, Fixodent, a coupon for a Hoveround, and other such encouraging items. With friends (family! Gasp!) like these...
My dear neighbors from down the street came in their fancy finest hats.
My fabulously funny friend, Kay-
and the masterminds behind it all-
Still not sure how I got here, but thankful for all His blessings!
