Today is my 40th birthday.
I thought I'd be older.
Thinner
Smarter
Well-read
Sure of myself
Further along my journey
Healthy and Whole
But I also never imagined that I'd be
So dedicated to my family
Creative
Living an artful Life
Actively seeking beauty
Pretty good in the kitchen
Madly and hopelessly in love with my husband of 18 years.
On the 10th year of my health struggle but still fundamentally me-ish.
Because one of the things I strive for is the message of this art,
Don't Let Your Struggle Become Your Identity

This "canvas" is actually a See's candy box. How great is that?
