Birthdays... Birthdays!!

Hello everyone!

Today I feel as if I am up to my ears in birthday presents!!! I love gift giving so I always spend way too much on everyone because I want the present to be perfect for them! This month of March is always filled with birthdays, birthdays, birthdays! (Lynetti's, Mom's, Ms. Elizabeth's, and Tracy's)

I am so excited that Tracy is home for the week so that we can celebrate her birthday with her! She came home to see beautiful little Kade who is my cousins new baby boy! He is so precious and I love when I get to see him! The other day on the snow day he feel asleep on me for an hour. How amazing is our God that he can create something so beautiful and innocent.

As time keeps passing Jonathan and I have realized that we are growing up.... its bitter sweet. I miss the times when I was a little girl, but I love being independent and on my own. I am beginning to see the changes in life... Last Wednesday I went to visit Stephanie on her birthday for a surprise. We all had a blast and Stephanie showed us her future house with Jasper, which is where he lives now. WOW my best friend from college who I use to act so silly with is about to start a family of her own. I am so amazed. It has sprung up on all of us so fast that it is hard to take it in. A few weekends ago I went with my sorority on their retreat and I felt at home and so out of place at the same time. The new candidates were just so giddy about starting their new adventure in the sorority and mine had finally ended. I am in awe of how time changes us slowly in the moment, but quickly in hindsight. I love everything God has led me through and I know that I will be in love with my future. I am so blessed and I am reminded that on a daily basis. When I hear of some of the struggles my students go through I feel so weak, because I know that I could not stand strong like they do. God definitely hands us what we can handle. He never gives us anything that we can't handle, which is so wonderful.

I hope everyone has a wonderful weekend. Go drink good wine and laugh with friends. ;)

Love,
