the best day of my life ... i almost bit the farm

GRATEFUL GIRL'S THOUGHT FOR THE DAY:
It's funny, really, how the best day of my life was the day I almost died. Literally. Seventeen years ago today, I was blessed with the greatest gift of my life; our son Kyle. It'd been a long hard road and the final bump was a moment or so that was touch and go after delivery. But the moral of the story is this: sometimes the toughest days reveal themselves to be the best you will have on this earth. I thank God every day for the greatest miracle of my life; one terribly handsome, smart, funny, athletic and overall fabulous young man. As I wish my son the happiest of birthdays today, I wish you all the strength to weather the storm; it's the only way to get to the rainbow.  

R. The Lord our God comes with power. Let the heavens be glad and the earth rejoice; let the sea and what fills it resound; let the plains be joyful and all that is in them! Then let all the trees of the forest rejoice. They shall exult before the LORD, for he comes; for he comes to rule the earth. He shall rule the world with justice and the peoples with his constancy. The day of the Lord is near: Behold, he comes to save us.
