Happy Birthday, Samantha!

[Doc_Klueless]

Today is my beautiful daughter's eighth birthday. And, for some reason, I'm overcome with emotions. She's so filled with life and light and happiness. Everyday brings something new and wonderful into the realms of her experience. Just watching her grow and learn fills me with my own sense of wonder and joy.

It's something I would never have experience without having a child of my own and something I'd do anything to keep.

So, even though she'll probably never see this, I just wanted to say: "Happy Birthday, Samantha!" I hope every year to follow is just as fill with love, joy and light.

Anyone else experience such... I don't know the words... goodness? Blessings? This is a good thread to reexperience or reexamine those things which make us feel alive and happy. With so many threads about people's lives falling apart or their days of unhappiness, let's show them that there is Goodness out there and it may be found in the smile of a beloved child or ... or whereever.

Congrats! To... her, I guess, and you too. Kids are great--we love 'em in our house. It's sad too, though--we don't have any plans to have anymore, so as our youngest passes out of certain stages, we are saying goodbye to those stages forever.

I often find that I feel the same overwhelming sense of love and happiness at the most random times when thinking about my husband - especially when thinking about our future together. We don't have kids yet, we married young and want to spend some time just being married before we embark on THAT journey (though, I go through desperately motherly phases pretty frequently!).

But yeah - I understand your joy and speechlessness quite well.

I am often overcome with joy and bliss when I see couples being intimate and children frolicking and having fun.

Hey, Fru... I don't think those couples *want* you watching them during their "intimate times"!

I just mean when they are holding hands or kissing.

Ditto. And my Samatha's 5th B-day was just this past Sunday.
