It’s My Birthday

Guess what today is?! It’s my BIRTHDAY!!  I thought it would be fun to share some things you might not know about me. 35 things because today I am 35!! (Birthday Dance)

Tulle Skirt

35 Things about me:

  1. On my twelfth birthday I was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes. I spent a week in the hospital and learned to give insulin shots, test my blood sugars and what foods I could and could not eat. It was crazy, hard and scary. But I would not change anything about it.
  2. I started dating my husband at the age of 15!! Crazy right? We went to different schools though.
  3. I am a night owl. I do my best work late at night. It’s the only time I can think in quiet. 😉
  4. I am the strict parent in our house. My hubby is the fun parent. We balance each other out. 🙂
  5. My Faith is a big part of how I got through some of the hardest times in my life. Without Him I am nothing. Christ is my savior and redeemer. My relationship with Him is something that is big in my life.
  6. I am a germaphobe. I do not drink after anyone. I won’t let my kids drink after each other either.
  7. I only have one sister. And she is my best friend!
  8. I got married at 18! Eek I know. So young!  And we lived in Florida at the time.
  9. I get my nails done every two weeks. 🙂
  10. I get my hair colored and cut every 3-4 weeks.
  11. I love to cook and bake.
  12. I love fresh green juice. And so do my kids. Get the recipe here.
  13. I have been blogging for 2 1/2 years now. You can see why I started a blog here.
  14. Before blogging I had a website called Claire Michelle Boutique and I made hair bows for people.
  15. I use essential oils for everything in our home. You can see that info in the ES oil section on the top of the page.
  16. Sushi is my favorite food!! Ever!
  17. I can still do a front and back flip (no hands) on the trampoline.
  18. My Grandmother is one of the most important people in my life. She taught me how to cook, and how to love unconditionally. I am a spitting image of her.
  19. All the books I read are nonfiction. I just read Candace Cameron Bure’s new book Dancing Through Life and I loved it. I loved it so much I gave two (new) books away during a scope on periscope. Find me on Periscope my handle is @acupfullofsass
  20.  I am a Starbucks lover! Here is what I order: Grande Skinny Carmel Mocha latte (sometimes I get an extra shot of expresso), steamed at 130 degrees and top it off with whip cream.  YUM!!
  21. I workout 2-3 days per week.
  22. We are still receiving Green Chef a food service that delivers organic meals for you to prepare in home. I wrote a post here on how it works. I also did a periscope on it. 🙂
  23. My favorite flower is a tulip.
  24. I do not have an office in my home. I blog for the dinning room table and or on the sofa.
  25. I love to do giveaways for my readers. I have one that will be coming up soon. 🙂
  26. Fall is my favorite season.
  27. Christmas is my favorite holiday.
  28. I host and cook all the family holiday dinners at our house.
  29. When I put my mind to something, I stick with it. Call it determination.
  30. I am not a camping girl. I will go glamping for a night. 🙂
  31. I love drinking a cold can of Sprite Zero during lunch time.
  32. Polka dots are my favorite dots. hehe
  33. Wine and Champagne is an actual food group to me.
  34. A Caprese Salad is my new thing.
  35. My favorite movie is Bridesmaids.

Now you may know me a little more about me after today’s post. Or that is what I hoped it would do.

So today I am happy to be 35 years old. I am thankful that I have lived a healthy life with type 1 diabetes for 23 years. That I carried three healthy amazing children despite my diabetes. I say that in itself is a victory! Because all I have ever really wanted, was to be a mom. I give all the Glory to Him for allowing me to do just that!

Today I will be celebrating my birthday with appreciation and gratitude for yet another year I have been blessed with.

    Hi Amy,
    Happy Birthday! Blessings to you today and throughout the year. I appreciated your remarks about thanking God for your health. I was diagnosed with a brain aneurysm last year and A-fib of the heart which makes treating the A-fib almost impossible. I am a bit older than you (68), but thank God each day for another day of life.

    I enjoy your emails (A Cup of Sass) very much. Thank you for sharing them.
    Ruth K

      Hi Ruth,
      Thank you so much! I am sorry about what is going on with your health. Thanking God is what I do as well. This is one of my favorite verses that I hold dear to my heart.
      God can do anything you know – far more than you could ever imagine or guess or request in your wildest dreams! Ephesians 3:20-21
