Happy birthday:

So today I turn another year older and hopefully wiser. For my birthday I ask you all to be kind to yourself. To take time to do something special for yourself.

About yesterday:

Yesterday was pretty amazing. It was my husband birthday. I can’t thank him enough for his love and commitment to me. How do you thank and celebrate someone who has been there for you? I love birthdays and celebrating with others. It’s amazing how many birthdays I have celebrated with him. And every year it gets better. I have seen social media post that bash men. I have seen women getting spoiled by men but not doing the same in return. I’m going to celebrate my husband and spoil him every birthday and every day. If you have someone amazing and if you knew our story then you know that this love is solid. So ladies please go out of your way to spoil and love on your man. We need men to know how important they are in our lives. We can celebrate them without it being there birthday. But let’s celebrate them more. They spoil us so let’s do the same.

What I want for my birthday:

So many people have asked me what I want for my birthday. And to be honest I have actually sat down and came up with something that will be a benefit to me and everyone around me. I want something that is going to develop me, help me grow and be a better person. This is my year of personal development, growth, healing and love. For all who know me, you know that I love to journal, read and I’m all about growth. So if you still don’t have a clue as to what I may want, a journal, books, essential oils and whatever else could help my new me that I’m trying to become.

Note to younger self:

This is my birthday month and as I reflect on getting older there are things I wish I could have told my younger self. Enjoy being you, you are so unique and genuine. Don’t let others determine your worth. Know that your beauty comes from within. You set your own standard don’t let the world set it for you. Be okay with not knowing everything and being able to help everyone. Make sure you focus on your dreams just as much as others are focused on there’s. You’re going to make mistakes but learn from them and grow. It’s okay to help people but make sure you’re helping yourself in the long run. Save money and don’t be so quick to give it away to others. Have fun and be goofy. Your smile will light up a room. Don’t worry about what others are doing or what they think about you. You are the best version of you. Keep your head up and know that you are loved. But more than anything dream, dream and dream some more. You got this girl.
