Allowing Kindess to Sink In

by Robin on July 5, 2010

I have a big birthday approaching and it seems as though every day a very nice surprise comes as a result.  My mom and my aunt Linda arrived for a little backyard party and did an unbelievable makeover on my back yard.  My in laws arrived on Sunday and managed to help me tame and beautify a front garden jungle, is it unrealistic of me to have been hoping that a family of monkeys might have moved in?

Today a card arrived from my step mother and I read it and thought awww, to myself and then got ready to set it down somewhere.  But then I read it again, actually read it and now I thought I would pay some extra attention to the extra attention I’m getting (which sometimes makes me feel pretty shy) and let it really sink in.

The card says

Happy Birthday Robin

Thinking of you and feeling grateful you’re in the world…making it kinder, a little nicer and a lot more wonderful.

Awww, blush, thank you…thank you…thank you…

May you let something wonderful sink in today; accept a kind word, a gift, a thoughtful gesture and just accept it and say Thanks and know you deserve it!
