Edie {Happy Birthday Sweet Friend}

"Friendship is born at that moment when one person says to another, 'What! You too? I thought I was the only one” - C.S. Lewis

Edie

My precious Edie.

Today is your birthday.

Friends from all over the map have come here to this place.

Your place.

Commited heinous acts of hackery even.

Just so we can love on you.

It is all some of us know to do.

We may not have the words.

May be fearful of saying too much.

Or not enough.

So this is what we do.

We celebrate you.

That my friend is so easy.

You were one of the first people I met and connected with here in this blogosphere.

Sadly, I can not even remember when it was, or from where, I rabbit trailed into your world at "Life In Grace".

But I am so very glad that I did.

God sometimes positions certain people directly on our path in life.

Knowing they will inspire us.

Make us laugh.

Make us exceptional exhibitors of eye make-up. ;-)

Make us cry.

Make us better.

That is you Edie.

You are a special person divinely placed on my path.

I am thankful for you.

Your words inspire.

Teach.

Challenge.

Encourage.

Your humility humbles.

Your strength empowers.

The rawness and grace in which you share your life...the good and the bad...moves.

Your yummy recipes make us thankful for the 2% of Spandex in our jeans.

Your ability to say "Blessed be Your name Lord" when so much has been stripped from your hands...

It changes us.

For the better.

May you feel our love today.

May you feel His peace.

May you have all the yerbamate your mug can hold.

May you forgive us for stealing all your photos.

May you be enveloped in the overflow of a life celebrated.

yours.

Happy Birthday Sweet Edie.

We weep with you.

We pray for you.

We hope with you.

We love you.

Edie and her family lost their home and entire contents to a fire just 4 days before Christmas. They need all the prayers, love, and support they can get. Please take the time to go here and shower her with your thoughts and prayers. Or whatever you feel led to do for this family. You do not even need a blog to do so.
