Today was my birthday, and it sure was special!!! It began with my
husband whispering "Happy Birthday." Then, as I was in the bathroom, a
formation of geese flew over our house honking their "Happy
Birthday"....which made me think of my mother and how much she loved
geese flying like that. Carl and I got to exercise a little bit, and
then into the car to drive to Tiburon. We took the ferry to Angel
Island, where the day was spectacular. The weather was glorious! Such
an answer to prayer! Although the week has been really windy and cool,
today was not windy, totally sunny, and not foggy!!! Thank you Father!
I am amazed at how much you show your love to me. We enjoyed exploring
the island, taking the tram tour. I mentioned that it was my birthday,
and all of a sudden, at one point, the guide stopped, got out, and
said, "I want to take a moment to sing "Happy Birthday" to my friend,
Kerstin!" So the tram tour sang to me :) We did not think we'd have
enough time to climb to the top peak, but we headed out to try. There
were wildflowers and butterflies everywhere. We were able to climb all
the way to the top and see all the spectacular views! So wonderful. We
had snacks and headed down. It was such fun to go on the ferry, seeing
sea creatures (ducks, porpoises), browse Tiburon meeting German
speaking shop keepers who may be interested in hanging my art, eat at
Old Chicago Pizza in Petaluma, have birthday cake at home, and open
sweet and thoughtful birthday cards and gifts from loved ones. Carl and
the kids went all out. Thank you Jesus! My life with you is
overflowing!
