Remembering Bonny as His Earthly Birthday Approaches

Though I remember my beloeved Bonny daily as if he is around somewhere near, the 5th of every month is a day I set aside to specially remember him by writing on this blog. As his earthly birthday approaches, I tried to remember how I celebrated his first birthday as my husband on 19th March 1996. No matter how hard I tried to remember, I just could not remember. Then I found the first birthday card I gave him on that day.
Yes, indeed I have fully shared my "yesterdays, todays and tomorrows" with him while he was on earth with me. I take joy to know that he had enjoyed those "yesterdays, todays and tomorrows". Though my journey with him on this earth has ended, the eternal journey we shall share one day is timeless:-). He had been such a wonderful gift from God to me that even though we have parted, every remembrance of him has and will continue to bring love, joy, peace, faith, hope and strength to me. I don't get to buy a present for him and celebrate his earthly birthday from now on, but I believe everyday in heaven is like a birthday celebration, surely it must be much more exciting and happy over there than here. "Sure;y goodness and love will follow me all the days of my life, and I will dwell in the hosue of the Lord forever." Psalm 23:6
