My Beloved celebrated his 47th birthday the other day. We’ve been sharing our life journey with each other for 8 years now. Birthdays are always a source of hope for me.

Mine was in December so I’m still buoyed by the hope from that time…the Hope that we will continue this wonderful journey together for many more years to come…

Your post, your photographs, the quote from the bible, all just right for Jake’s word prompt “Hope”! I enjoyed your post today. Thank you, Penny
You are very welcome, Penny. Oh, happy birthday too!
