O Happy Day
"Be at rest once more, o my soul, for the Lord has been good to you." -Psalm 116:7
Birthdays are good... :-) Why is it though I can never sleep in on my birthday? I ususally wake up at like six am just bursting with excitment for the day~! I got up around 8 though today, which is later than usual, not any "saturday sleeping in record." Although presents and cards were tempting me to tear into them, I started the day with my daily Isaiah reading. That book is my favorite- there's always something new every time, and such a great picture of God's covenant faithfulness to his people, not just to individuals. Needless to say it was a wonderful reading. Then I opened my card from Sarah and Graham, it was really sweet! Graham signed it in typical Graham fashion, "-Graham, aka, Sarah's husband." Hehe, as if I'd forget who he was :-)
Jen wanted me to wake her up when I got up, so I went into her room next and opened her present to me....a free milkshake whenever I want it! hooray! I think I will use it for a vanilla ice cream cone from McDonalds, -I LOVE those things! Then we all went downstairs and had cream filled donuts for breakfast! It was yummy even though I couldn't have the chocolate ones. Then Jen and I went shopping in Huntsville, for stuff for New York, and I got quite a bit of clothes- it was very fun. And I also got to have Subway's new chicken parmesan sandwhich, which I'd been craving for a long time. It was pretty good- the chicken was a little disapointing but the parmesan part was good!
Then we came home, cleaned up the house and Mom and Dad fixed a fantabulous dinner. Some friends came over and we had a great time. It was my worldview's teacher and her husband (the nicest people in the world!) and their two little girls, (Elizabeth 2, and Amelia 1. -THE cutest things!) Words cannot even describe thier cuteness!!! It was a great evening. Dad grilled chicken, salmon, squash and corn and Mom made green beans, and macoroni and cheese. She also made a pumpkin cream cheese roll for dessert! It was very very yummy.
Now I'm tired, but a good tired. AND we get an extra hour tonight. O happy day!!!!!!!
