I had a birthday a few weeks ago. I’ve had a lot of crazy birthdays in my life, (like my grandma died on my birthday one year for instance) and my birthday often causes me a great deal of anxiety, so my family tries hard every year to make it a great day. This year, Madalyn spent all her hard-earned money on a sweet little box of gifts for me. There were some snacks, a candle, a card, and a little notebook and pen. (She knows me well! 😉 )The best surprise was a little poem I found in the inside cover of the little notebook. A little poem that she wrote herself just for me! Of course I’ll treasure it always. ❤
Dreams

Grab your dream
And hold it tight.
Never let it
Out of sight.
