Just a quick five minute blog this morning to cover why it has been a few days since my last blog post. I like to take the weekends off from blogging so that my thoughts don't just end up being mundane and off track. Sometimes we need that break; it's why God took the seventh day off after creating all of this awesomeness around is and suggested we do the same. But beyond that, this weekend held something else for me - MY 26th BIRTHDAY!
I have to say it was truly a blessing. I really do love presents - even though I guess I am no longer a kid - but I will always be a kid at heart! Even though I didn't receive any physical gifts, the few cards I got were filled with great reminders of how I am not alone and how much I am loved. My sister and her husband and girls got me a gift card to my favorite restaurant, Red Lobster!, and my parents helped pay off the rest of my previous college debt! My pastor took me out to eat at Joe's Crab Shack on Sunday where I was treated to Lobster and Queen Crab, and another family in the church gave me a card with cash. One of the biggest surprises of my birthday was how many people responded with happy birthday blessings yesterday, over 200 of you wished me another great year! I am so thankful for everyone's support and excited about some sweet surprises in this new year!
