Put Another Candle on My Birthday Cake

We celebrated my 52nd birthday on June 2nd. Maybe you better not "put another candle on my birthday cake," you might not be able to see the cake. In the "old days" I would come home from school as a child to hear Sheriff John sing "The Birthday Cake Song" on his TV show. So for most of my kid's birthdays, they've had to endure hearing me sing that song to them. Oh well, my own goofy tradition, I guess. But really, the older I get the more I realize how fast time truly goes by and how many more things I still want to do. I love this quote:

"Watches are so named as a reminder -

if you don't watch carefully

what you do with your time,

it will slip away from you. "

~Drew Sirtors

I also love this quote:

We should work hard and use our time wisely

to serve our families and build up the kingdom of God.

Time and the ability to labor

are the capital stock of the whole world of mankind,

and we are all indebted to God

for the ability to use time to [our] advantage. . ."

~Brigham Young

Well, birthday celebration is over. I guess I better get moving.
