I was having a conversation with my son the other day via text.\u00a0 I had said something about him being a “Honeymoon baby.”\u00a0 He went into the typical teenager response of “Eewwww… I didn’t need to know that…”<\/p>\n

And it kinda hit me.\u00a0 He is here because Wendell and I meet and fell in love.\u00a0 I remember this as we celebrated our 20th Valentine’s Day together yesterday. None of the children I have would be here if not for that one moment in time that God brought two people together and created a spark.<\/p>\n

That spark just grows and grows with each passing year.\u00a0 And, with my son and most people around the world.. ok, that may be stretching it a bit… the anniversary of a birth is celebrated with fire.<\/p>\n

See what I did there… what a great segue.\u00a0 But, it really is the truth… the spark between your parents is celebrated in the tiny fire on top of your birthday cake.\u00a0 I know… so profound, right!?!<\/p>\n

So, with that thought in mind, this card was created…<\/p>\n

\"2016-07-20-08-10a\"<\/p>\n

Don’t you just love that bright color scheme.\u00a0 I sure do!<\/p>\n

Here is the inside \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n
