My 60th Birthday

Today is my 60th birthday! Woo-hoo! My cousin gave me this special hummingbird ornament on Saturday and I knew immediately I wanted to use it for my birthday photo. There are many legends around the magic and spiritual meaning of the hummingbird. As I celebrate my birthday today and head into my sixties, I am reflecting on the hummingbird's vigor and persistence, inspiring us to give our all to pursue and fulfill our dreams and desires.

@lesip Turning 60 was so much easier for me compared to turning 50. I think I'm just at that stage in my life where...hey...it's all good. :-)
