Feb. 4, 2008 - Today is my birthday!!!
Posted in Everyday Grace
On this day, 34 years ago, I was born. It's been a pretty uneventful day. I woke up this morning and totally forgot it was my birthday. Si-Bay gave me a birthday present last night by sleeping from 8pm - 4am this morning. Even after 5 hours of sleep I felt very refreshed. Underdog reminded me that he had given me a birthday present this morning. That was when I remembered it was my birthday. Birthdays are pretty simple when you get older.
Yesterday was fun though. We decided to have a family Super Bowl Party (can I get in trouble for using those words in my blog? Maybe I should say the Big Game.) I made Tortilla Soup for the adults and two older kids. We even got to have a little bit of goat cheese with our soup. Any kind of dairy is a treat in our family. I made tostados for my two picky eaters and gave one tostados to everyone else. Si-Bay got a bowl of black beans and steamed apples. It was a delicious meal. For dessert, Underdog enlisted the girls help and made me a pineapple upside down cake for my birthday. They made it from my new Agave Nectar cookbook so I could eat it. :) It was very rich but very yummy. I think that is the first time Underdog has ever volunteered to make a cake for my birthday. I felt honored. He also gave me my presents before the game started. I have been asking for a copy of the ESV Bible on CD for a long time now. He got me a copy of that and an iPod so I can put my music and the Bible on it. I am really excited about this because now I have something to listen to while I am running.
Speaking of running, I can't remember if I blog about my new adventure. I am training to run a 5K. Yea!!! I am hoping to run one by May. We bought a treadmill using our Christmas money from my parents. It's been awesome being able to work out again. I actually missed running. The last time I ran was back in high school (10th grade.) That was almost 20 years ago. I have taken right to it again. I really enjoy it.
Well, I am off to finish my laundry and get ready to go to dinner. My family is taking me to a Monogolian grill tonight for my birthday. I have a coupon for a free birthday bowl. We are also sort of celebrating Pee-Poohs birthday. He also gets a free bowl since his birthday is in February.

I love having a place on the web to simply write out my thoughts. I am a wife and mother to 5 very special blessings ages 6 months to 8 yod. As I am growing through this season of my life, I hope to share how the Lord is teaching me to live by His daily grace and not by my own strength.
