The sweetest woman in the whole entire world has a birthday TODAY.
My precious Beezie. :)
Words cannot even begin to express how much I love this lady.
I am thankful to the good Lord for her every single day.
There are very few people my age who still have their great-grandmother.
Please know I do NOT take this for granted, not even a little bit.
I'll never forget my 11th grade year. Beezie fell.
We rushed to her house and I remember keeping her still and trying to control her bleeding forehead.
Through her fall she broke her neck and arm.
91 years old at the time, the doctors gave her a very slim chance.
They said she'd recover pretty well if (and they stressed IF) she made it through surgery. They gave her 20% chance.
I remember pleading with God. I wasn't ready to let her go.
And my precious Savior allowed her to recover 100%.
A few years later she was walking out to her swing set and slipped on some acorns in the yard. She broke her pelvic bone.
Doctors told us how slim the chance of recovery was once again.
And my precious Savior allowed her to recover, again, 100%.
Oh, praise Him!
I tell you these stories to tell you that I do not take her life for granted.
I know every single day is a blessing from God. He wasn't finished with her, and He still isn't.
She is a living, breathing testimony of God's unconditional love.
Never in my life have a I heard her utter a single harsh word about anyone.
Serious.
She sees the good in everything and everyone.
"That's what I say" is one Beezie's sayings, and it's my favorite. Along with "Hey, Sug!"
She is the perfect model for the Proverbs 31 woman. Every single verse describes her.
I hope I grow to be half the woman she is.
Happy Birthday Beezie!
I love you so much!
Until next time.
Love God. Love people.
