Well it's official. I'm seventy-one years old now! To all of those who are looking at me from a younger vantage point, that's getting up there in years. To all of those who are looking at me from an older vantage point, that's not all that old. It's all in our perspective, right?
For me personally, it feels so good
to be growing older. Each day God gifts me with life here on
this earth place brings me one day closer to Glory. I can
hardly wait to go Home!
Rather than having a birthday party
with cake and ice cream, rather than going out to a restaurant with
my husband to celebrate, we are leaving shortly to go back out to
Eyene. I can think of no better way to celebrate my birthday!
Happy belated birthday, Alice!!! (Isn't it nice how "belated" sounds so… well, so dignified and polite and important. It's as if it makes the greeting more sincere, which, of course, it can't get any more sincere than it already is!)

Love you, cousin!
