I'm also getting read to celebrate some birthdays next week - my mom's and my own (Happy Birthday MOM!) I'm not particularly happy about getting a year older, but I've made it a tradition over the last few years to take each birthday has a chance to spend some time reflecting on where I'm at and where I want to go in the next year.
This year I think I've learned that some of the very best things that have ever happened to me are the things I didn't plan, but because I was willing to take a leap into the unknown, changed my life for the better. I'm hoping this year will bring new adventures and challenges.
Today, Alison Krauss's Gravity is feeling a bit like it was written for me.
Did you know we relaunched Inspiration Studio this week? We are working on a playlist full of the musical artists who inspire us to create. I'd love it if you'd hop on over here and share your favorites.

Wonderful song choice. Happy Friday!
Gorgeous clouds! And Happy Birthday to you and your mom!
well, Happy Birthday to you and Mom! (i was born on my Mom's b-day) I love birthdays. Not that I normally do anything special. I'm just always happy that I've made it to another one, and look forward to what another year will bring. I totally agree, you simply have to be ready, with an open mind and heart for whatever life may send your way. I hope you have a fabulous weekend.
What lovely fat clouds! And happy birthday in advance. Don't worry about all those years - they're what makes you you :-)
Happy early birthday to you :) I like your outlook on birthdays! And how nice to share your birthday week with your Mom.
Have a nice weekend :) xx
Well Happy early birthday to you and your mom. I think it's great to spend this time each year thinking about where you've been and where you're going.

hey, love those glorious clouds. and happy birthday to you Jamie, and to your Mum too. the years sure roll by don't they? I checked out IS and it looks fantastic over there! love it. most of the songs that inspire me are way old (from the 60's) and familiar...fresh inspiration is needed! happy weekend to you.
Happy birthday to both of you. I love your shots, I'm so addicted to taking photos of clouds that my husband makes fun of me all the time.
Happy Birthday to you both! I like your perspective on being open minded to change and the unexpected. I need to be more like that!
These are beautiful photographs Jamie, and so perfect for your post. It sounds like a good way to spend a birthday.
Happy (early) Birthday wishes to both you and your Mom!

HBD to your Mom.
these are beautiful clouds. I think you should never stop reflecting, its always good to check in on yourself once and a while! I agree with you that sometimes the best things in life are those things that are unplanned.. fyi I discovered Jason Collett & Jose Rouse, two singers you might want to check out, good stuff!
I love cloud watching...wonderful photos, my friend!
Hope your birthday is happy, peaceful, and full of reflection and insight <3 (and, oh, happy birthday to mom, too!)

Happy Birthday Jamie, and Jaimie's Mom! I love your cloud photos. I could happily photograph nothing but clouds.
Happy Birthday sweet girl. I so remember the excitement of your birth. The world has never been the same. You brought joy, love, happiness, laughter, insight, wisdom, perspective, courage, and excitement into the world with you and you share all these things with those you touch. Every year you are here makes the world a better place. Have a wonderful day and a joy filled year. (Oh, and your moms pretty cool too, I missed her birth by lots of years...don't tell her I said that, she hates it when I rub it in that she's the older sister! :-)...Happy Birthday to her also. ) xoxoxo P

Wishing you a wonderful birthday!!! September is such a beautiful month for a bday. Our daughter's was last week :)
