Uplifting birthday.
by mariagrace
Today’s my birthday. Woot!
1st: Thanks Mom & Dad. Sincere, huge, big, gigantic Thank You for having me, raising me, and being there for me. You guys are the reason I have today.
2nd: Thanks to my brother for being the best. And since I say this only once a year, hopefully he’s reading this post because I won’t say it again until next year. I don’t want his head to get too big. Haha.
3rd: Go see Up. Really, it’s a must-see. Bring some tissue because you’ll cry. And if you live in the area, go to Fenton’s. I did both this weekend and it was the best ever.

4th: Enjoy a cupcake. You will have a happier day, believe me. See below for the awesome cupcakes Cat and Julie made for me for my birthday. They knocked it out of the park with these. They totally did.

And finally: My vow for the year. This will keep me grounded, keep me real, and keep my Grace.

God bless,
Grace

I browse your site from time to time, because it’s too cute to resist, and I just had to comment on this post
First of all, I want to wish you a wonderful birthday! May your years be long and joyous.
Second of all, is that a picture of Bay Street in Emeryville? I didn’t know you lived in the Bay Area! Haha, I was planning on going to see Up at the AMC theater soon.
Happy birthday! And I so totally want to see Up and didn’t have the slightest that it would be a sad movie. I might have to wait for it on DVD now…can’t be acting a blubbering fool in the movie theater (smile).

Belated Happy Birthday! Never too late for birthday wishes. I just learned about your work from Barbara B. You’re an inspiration. BTW, I loved the movie UP too! I went to see it with my hubby and two kids. May you have a blessed year ahead of you!
